The energy sector in Africa is evolving fast, but strong leadership isn't keeping pace. Many managers in the energy sector excel in technical expertise but struggle with the real challenges of leadership: managing teams, making strategic decisions, and driving business growth. That is why AMI’s Empowering Managers Programme is designed to equip energy sector professionals in Africa with the confidence and hands-on knowledge to lead high-performing teams, tackle industry-specific challenges, and build resilient businesses.
But what sets this management course for the energy sector apart isn’t just the curriculum, it's the unique approach tailored to the unique needs of energy companies in Africa. Instead of heavy theory sessions, participants are engaged in interactive virtual workshops and participate in team based activities that put their skills to action. The focus is on real workplace challenges, allowing leaders to implement what they learn immediately.

The Empowering Managers Programme is more than just a leadership course—it’s a career transformation. Managers who have gone through the programme consistently report:

Transforming Leadership in the Energy Sector – Real Stories from Our Managers
Many of our programme participants report transformative changes in their leadership approach after completing the Empowering Managers Programme. They share stories of moving from uncertainty to confidence, from reactive management to proactive leadership.
Jared Winston Ouda for example, Sales Manager at Orb Energy Kenya, shared that before AMI, he often struggled with communication and delegation, assuming he was understood and taking on others’ problems. After going through the programme, he reported a noticeable shift to a more strategic role, delegating with confidence and improving team communication—a change his boss quickly noticed.
Florys Mokili from Goshop, Energy SARL RDCongo, described how the programme helped him define SMART objectives and effectively communicate them to his team, fostering a sense of ownership and trust. He noted that his coaching skills have significantly improved, leading to stronger team performance.
