And to do that, we will continue to build a new breed of leaders without greed, so that we lay a foundation of strong institutions that deliver results for the benefit of those we serve," he said.

Chakwera stated that his three years as President had taught him that the capacity of leaders is not just the thing that separates good churches from great ones, but it is what separates the good from the great in any arena of human pursuit.

'And I have no doubt that this year's Global Leadership Summit will be a great catalyst for building the leadership capacity of our office bearers across the board," said Chakwera.
