The leadership series is a uganda telecom with the main aim of offering a platform for leaders to engage in lively intellectual discussion and debate on diverse social, economic, political and cultural issues affecting our society, while creating awareness and promoting the standard of living within our community.

The annual leadership series has hosted several renowned personalities and speakers over the past four years including Professor Mahmood Mamdhani, Dr. Ron Jenson, Baroness Linda Chalker, Mr. Wilfred Kiboro, CEO of the Nation Media Group and more recently, Mr. Rob Parsons, a world renown motivational speaker.

Apart from intellectual discourse and lively debates, the leadership series also engages in charity work, as part of the corporate responsibility placed on them. Beneficiaries of this include Lira babies home, SOS village, Sanyu babies home, Tooro babies’ home and Health Alert Gulu; all catering for the livelihood of the less fortunate children in society like orphans, and abandoned or abused children. The participants of the annual leadership series, all donate towards these causes and uganda telecom matches the total amount donated, hence, doubling the total. 

This year, 2008, the money collected will go to the Uganda Child Rights NGO Network who operate two toll free child helplines, both sponsored by Uganda Telecom. UCRNN receive an average of 4400 calls a month from children reporting cases of abuse.

As a responsible corporate citizen supporting community outreach programs as well as charities, uganda telecom pledges continued commitment to supporting such initiatives.
