TITLE® – How to Tame the Invisible Toll (Emotional Cost) of Leadership & Leverage AI Decision-Making to Build a Legacy Organization with 21st Century Intelligence
What Is The CEO Forum?
The CEO Forum is Africa’s premier executive conversation platform — a safe and strategic space for top leaders to confront the hidden emotional costs of power while mastering AI-driven decision-making for sustainable growth.
This is not just another business but a rare gathering where authenticity meets strategy, and where today’s most influential executives exchange insights to redefine resilience, productivity, and legacy in a disruptive age
About CEO Forum 2025
The CEO Forum is an exclusive executive conversation platform — a direct offshoot of TPP 100, delivered in 2023, where 100 of Africa’s foremost executives were celebrated and challenged to embrace peak performance and legacy leadership.
In 2023, the TPP 100 spotlighted iconic achievers including Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, HRM Ogiame Atuwatse III, Mr. Nduka Obaigbena, and Orikolade Karim. The platform recognized leaders whose impact continues to shape Africa’s business, governance, and cultural landscape.
🎥 Watch highlights:
The impact of TPP 100 was profound:
100 executives were honored for redefining peak performance.
Policymakers, entrepreneurs, and cultural icons engaged in continental dialogue.
Thousands participated via live sessions, national media, and global digital streams.
The CEO Forum builds on this legacy. Where TPP 100 recognized leaders, the Forum now equips them — creating a confidential platform where CEOs and C-Suite executives can confront the invisible toll of leadership, master AI-driven decision frameworks, and craft strategies to ensure their organizations thrive across generations.
Over three years, TPP Africa’s platforms — from the TPP 100 to the CEO Forum — have engaged more than 10,000 leaders across Africa, setting a new benchmark for executive resilience, productivity, and legacy-driven leadership.
This year, the CEO Forum continues that mission with Mr. Kunle Elebute, former Chairman of KPMG Africa, serving as Executive-in-Conversation, guiding Africa’s top leaders in balancing immediate results with enduring impact.
