Cross-Cultural Leadership Lessons: A South African Perspective

Michael Cassidy has over 50 years of experience as the founder of African Enterprise, a non-racial, interdenominational, Pan-African ministry into the cities and leadership circles of Africa, bringing a ministry in both word and deed in partnership with the church. Today A.E. has evangelistic teams in Congo (D.R.C.), Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe. Michael has been instrumental in calling together many major gatherings of church leaders over the years and also played a major and leading role in behind-the-scenes negotiations in the run up to the first democratic elections in South Africa in 1994. From this depth of experiences, Michael will share lessons he has learned in cross-cultural leadership and partnerships for mission.
