“Studying L&D helped me to improve a graduate employability programme in Kenya”

In July, I was lucky enough to meet Joan Kago – one of our CIPD L&D Level 5 graduates. Joan had travelled all the way from Kenya to London, to deliver her presentation as a People Management Award nominee for the ‘Michael Kelly Outstanding Student Award 2018’.    Professionally, Joan has supported drastic changes in the way her company, Base Titanium, works with the local community and, nationally, she’s developed a project which can be replicated to improve employability and recruitment in Kenya.

What has Amazon done to FMCG?
What has Amazon done to FMCG?

Love it or hate it, Amazon is dominating ecommerce. On Black Friday in 2017, Amazon accounted for 55% of all US online transactions. How can anyone else, and FMCG brands in particular, compete with such domination?
