Southern Africa Nazarene University is introducing a Diploma in Business Management & Entrepreneurship programme in August.
Vice Chancellor Winnie Nhlengethwa says the goal is to produce entrepreneurial leaders of high integrity who will positively impact their communities. The programme addresses issues of authentic leadership, which the Harvard Business Review deemed the “gold standard for leadership.” The programme also emphasises Christian and business ethics.
Those who successfully graduate the programme will be able to support Swaziland's Vision 2022, which involves creating sustainable businesses that will curtail unemployment challenges and move the economy to first-world status.
The Diploma in Business Management and Entrepreneurship curriculum addresses two critical areas in Swaziland and the Southern African Development Community Region.
- That of producing entrepreneurs who will not look for employment opportunities but create these for themselves and the rest of their communities. The programme curriculum has been uniquely designed to equip aspiring entrepreneurs to start and successfully manage their own enterprises.
- That of producing business managers with skills in marketing, finance, accounting, transformational leadership, and project management for those who may want to be employed in the business sector.
