Who We Serve
Individuals
Entry - Level Professionals
Mid - Career Professionals
We work with mid-level professionals at cogent Afrique to prepare them for career advancement, whether vertically within the same firm or horizontally into a new employer. As the workplace becomes increasingly competitive, many mid-level jobs are requiring additional qualifications and work experience, making the decision to advance in your profession or transfer your attention to a different field even more difficult. If you don’t have the right support structure in place, the journey can be long, arduous, and mostly fruitless. We assist you in navigating and thriving during this shift.
Dual - Career Professionals
Globalization has opened greater opportunities for professional mobility across borders. While this is good for career advancement and growth for the assignee, it comes with challenges for the accompanying partner. We at Cogent Afrique understand these challenges very well. We have created a s pace for accompanying partners who wish to remain professionally active to network and engage with like-minded people and get inspired to achieve their dreams and goals.
Organizations
In our work with organizations, we aim to inspire commitment and alignment to the organization’s mission and values, leading to synergy and positive energy needed for increased productivity and effectiveness. Our Success Teams and Life Orientations (LIFO) workshops are the keys to unlock individual and team potential in executive teams, departmental teams, special purpose teams and focus groups. By helping teams and individuals to understand and capitalize on their strengths or game plan for success in dealing with tasks and people, we help an organization create an environment where everyone thrives and operates successfully as partners and team mates rather than competitors. We provide presence, structure, support tools and techniques to help teams and organizations achieve success.
Teachers
The most effective teacher is one who knows when and how to be the guide on the side rather than the sage on the stage in a student’s learning process. You may have heard of people who say they developed love for a subject they were not good at, or loathed a subject they previously liked, because of a teacher. At Cogent Afrique, we partner with schools to equip teachers through our Train-the-Teacher program, so that they can appreciate the strengths of their preferred teaching styles, identify blind sports and learn strategies to tune-in and accommodate the learning styles of their students. Our goal is to equip teachers to be effective facilitators of learning and bring out the best in their students.
Students
Students today live in a world that is already complex, evolving, and competitive on a global scale. For them to succeed, they need a wide range of skills. Students are also subjected to negative programming as a result of increased access to information brought about by technological advancements. To mitigate the negative consequences of the digital revolution, it is critical that a complementary voice of reason be conveyed to all stakeholders engaged. Cogent Afrique aspires to be a leader on this front, working with children from various schools to help shape a complete being – mentally, emotionally, spiritually and psychologically.
Teams
Individuals who want to transform their lives alongside others are welcome to plug into Success Team of four to seven like minded individuals and learn how to turn their wildest dreams into achievable goals, how to banish limiting beliefs, and overcome obstacles to their goals. Our coach and cheer leader provides support, structure and techniques to participants so that they can chart their path to success as they motivate, inspire and challenge one another for 2 hours every week for 8 weeks.
Families, Couples and Marriage Enrichment Groups (MEG)
We value community and believe that strong families make up strong communities; for that reason, we offer opportunities to families, couples and family related groups such as Marriage Enrichment Groups (MEG) to experience discovery together and learn ways of recognizing, appreciating, and embracing one another’s values, world views and strengths leading to synergy that is essential for accomplishing shared goals and visions.
