      In this role I was called upon by the McKinsey Johannesburg office to design, manage and implement a leadership program aimed at accelerating the leadership development of talented black South Africans. I was intimately involved in the coaching and mentorship of all participants on this program. I also delivered leadership workshops to colleagues and clients of the firm. My key contribution in this role would have been increasing the office's diversity and inclusivity, pioneering a never-before-done program in a very competitive environment with unprecedented success and contributing to the accelerated talent development of really exceptional profiles (visioning, goal setting, building professional profiles and connecting into the next career track).
