Topics covered included the foundations of good governance, results-oriented and accountable leadership, management of public investments, strategic decision-making in overseeing public institutions and corporations, and leadership grounded in national interest and national security.

Participants also built capacity in leadership protocol and etiquette, emotional intelligence, strategic negotiations, as well as executive-level communication and leadership image within Government.
