Center for Outreach, Mentorship & Empowerment

COME

COME focuses on building Africa’s young professionals, and students to provide leadership
of service and transformation wherever they find themselves; leadership that is anchored
on integrity and excellence.

The Centre for Outreach, Mentorship, and Empowerment (COME) was established in 2014 as a human capital development centre where visions are shaped, and talents are developed to bridge the transformational leadership gap at all levels in African societies. The Centre thus focuses on building Africa’s young professionals and students to provide leadership of service and transformation wherever they find themselves; leadership that is anchored on integrity and excellence.
