Seminar Books
As part of Kff Foundation efforts to arm its grantees with knowledge and skills compensating for their lacking supportive and role model network, all grantees are every Saturday night participating in seminars based on literature in the broad field of leadership.
We try to cover all aspects of the subject and use the grantees' presentation as active training in public speaking with peer critics and advice on voice, language, para-language and body language aside from the contents preparation. We believe that this training is vital for their future professional impact.
Some of the books we have used as seminar base are listed below:
