Proposals, African-style

I’d like to use today’s post to congratulate the team behind this week’s first-ever African proposal management conference.

The event – “Making a splash” – took place in Johannesburg on Wednesday, and I was honoured to be invited to give the keynote speech in front of a sold-out audience of over sixty participants. I was delighted, too, for the dozen participants who passed their APMP Foundation Level exam on Tuesday after we’d worked intensively through the syllabus together.
Proposal Panda – who’s been in hibernation for the past couple of months (aka sat in the corner of my office looking glum) – joined me for the trip, and met the local proposal mascot, Wendy Witch. Here are a couple of photos from the conference and the accreditation course:​

It’s great to see the emergence of the ‘profession’ in South Africa, and the organisers (led by local APMP chapter chair Sandy Pullinger) deserve huge praise for their hard work.
