The masterclass will focus on five major areas: leadership development and visionary coaching; business growth strategies for sustainable success; personal development and purpose alignment; media, influence and impact building; and networking with industry professionals.

Organisers said the sessions would emphasise practical learning and expert guidance, giving participants an opportunity to gain useful insights that can be applied to their careers, businesses and personal lives.

The masterclass is seen as an opportunity for participants to learn, build meaningful relationships and gain fresh perspectives in a changing professional and business environment.
