Radio 2000 introduces leadership talk show

Moditure Agenda, a weekly one-hour drive time radio programme focusing on leadership, life and career coaching, is being broadcast every Thursday at 6pm, on Radio 2000.

Hosted by Adriaan Groenewald, MD, Moditure Consulting, a company focused on generating profitable leaders and employees in commerce and civic society, and sponsored by Old Mutual, the programme covers topics and issues relating to leadership and the development of leaders. It is aimed at top executives down to line managers and others who are seeking to build their careers.

Groenewald, co-author of 'CEO Leadership Handbook', which studied prominent South African figures such as former president Nelson Mandela, Pick 'n Pay CEO Sean Summers, Wiphold CEO Louisa Mojela, and JSE CEO Russell Loubser, says Moditure Agenda aims to cultivate profitable leaders, and empower leaders and staff at all levels. "It is the first show of its kind to offer live coaching to listeners," he says.

Groenewald is joined by a panel of experts each week as he discusses current challenges and leadership issues within the South African context. "I have spent several years coaching and training executives and interviewing top South African leaders and compiling the findings for the CEO Leadership Handbook. Now, with Old Mutual on board, we believe our listeners will be able to benefit from this qualitative research by tuning in to a live discussion on the topics at hand."

Groenewald says further, "South Africa has the potential to be an optimum learning environment in which any leader can develop and enhance their skills. The challenge is for us to deliberately and consciously transfer leadership capability through the creation of one universal leadership language and culture in government and business. Moditure Agenda is committed to harnessing the lessons learnt by current top leaders and other successful people, and to share their experiences with our listeners."

Highlights of the show include the monthly "Top Leader Interview" and Top Inspirational Story". Live coaching is offered to listeners by a panel including Groenewald, Sean Donnelly, and a weekly special guest. Listeners can also e-mail their queries to the programme at .
