Telecom Fiji Limited (TFL) has renewed its partnership with Leadership Fiji in the nurturing of Fiji’s leadership cadre.
The two organisations signed a Memorandum of Understanding last week, rekindling a partnership that began when Leadership Fiji first started 22 years ago.
“We value relationship building and are grateful to welcome back one of our founding partners to our family. This partnership shows Telecom Fiji’s belief in our vision to develop and the quality of Leaders in Fiji and we are excited for what this partnership brings,” Leadership Fiji’s Chief Executive Officer, Sharyne Fong said.
“We have seen a few participants from Telecom Fiji that have been part of our Leadership Fiji Program who are now in positions of influence in the various organisations that they now serve in.”
Telecom Fiji has evolved over the last 100 years from basic landline voice services to now providing end to end ICT and high-speed broadband solutions, owning, and operating the country’s backbone telecommunications network infrastructure.
“At Telecom Fiji, we are committed to nurturing strong and capable leaders in Fiji. We recognize the pivotal role that effective leadership plays in driving innovation and fostering growth especially in the constant changing world of technology and therefore we are delighted to be collaborating with Leadership Fiji,” said Charles Goundar, chief executive officer of Telecom Fiji Limited.
Leadership Fiji is an independent, non-partisan, non-aligned entity that has been in operation for 22 years and through its programs build community leaders, focus on values-based leadership, and exposes participants to Fiji’s socio-economic framework through site visits and speakers from various sectors and industries.
Telecom Fiji was one of its founding partners in the first three years of its establishment.
