African footprint is in response to the positive demand for the programme’s content.
It is with great pleasure that I share my comments on the professional and quality service
provided by CEO Global.
In 2012 we were fortunate enough to partner with CEO Global in order to develop
a commemorative book. The work was however a very sensitive nature as we were
documentingtheNDAandothergovernmentpartners’influenceintermsofearlychildhood
development, capactiy building, income generation as well as skills development in rural
regions of South Africa.
Nevertheless, despite the sensitivity of the project as well as the extremely tigh deadline,
CEO Global offered and delivered impeccable service, through professional and superior
quality work. At short notice, travel arrangements were made and the accompanying team
excelled at multi-tasking in order to achieve the goals in the limited period.
It is due to this exceptional experience of CEO Global’s service and product delivery that I
would highly recommend the vast bouquet of services that they are able to provide.

I would just like to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH for the invitation to last night’s South
Africa’s Most InfluentialWomen in Business and Government Gala Dinner which I thoroughly
enjoyed. It was so inspiring and motivational, and has made me want to do more than shine
with talent, it has made me want to surpass my own goals!
PJ Powers was thrilling and gave us goose bumps, the décor was ravishing red, the food
beautifully presented and delicious, the finalists wowed us with their outfits and the winners
inspired us to be winners too!
Thank you once again for giving me the opportunity to share in this unforgettable
inspirational evening.
