Cohorts focus on working together to apply learning and Action Learning Projects to solve key challenges in specific focus areas.
Guided & Supported Learning Journeys
Cohort-Based
Groups of learners are guided by AMI’s facilitators through experiences that emphasize peer-to-peer learning, action learning projects, and networking.
Tech-Enabled
AMI’s web and mobile apps support learners anytime and anywhere with access to video content, downloadable tools and engagement, throughout their journey.
Africa First
Our approach and content is built for Africa’s ambitious professionals and teams. With content in 7 languages, African case studies, and experiences led by Africa’s finest facilitators, we put Africa first in everything we do.
The Learning Labs were incredible—very interactive and practical. The content was highly relevant, not just theory, but real-life examples you can apply immediately. I loved that I could take what I learned, put it into practice, and see real, tangible results.
Edwin
Department Head
AMI used its blended learning approach to ensure the programme translated into actual on-the-job practice and performance improvement. My sense is that the value generated from the team projects alone has more than paid for the programme itself. We’ve had a great experience with AMI over the last 4 years and consider them a valuable learning partner.

Overview
Effective leaders do more than demand performance—they inspire, collaborate, and drive results with behaviours that foster results. This programme equips leaders with the emotional intelligence, communication, and change management skills required to elevate teams and achieve tangible business outcomes.
Participants don’t just read about how to become better leaders, they put new concepts and tools into practice through interactive learning labs, self-paced learning on AMI’s platform, and structured peer feedback to reinforce practical application.
During the 8-12 month journey, leaders complete a collaborative Action Learning Project, applying AMI’s proven change management tools to solve real business challenges “on the job”. Professional coaches support the implementation of new leadership behaviours within the Action Learning Project framework.
Guided by AMI’s expert facilitators, coaches, and learning managers, this flagship experience ensures leaders not only gain new skills but actively implement them—building stronger teams and driving organisational outcomes in real time.
