Vision & Mission

Our Mission

Our core mission is to help the world’s most extraordinary doers to fulfil their potential by creating the relationships they need to achieve maximum impact in every aspect of their lives. The ROOM helps talent unlock potential; for yourself, for your organisation and for others. 


Our single-minded goal
To connect 2 million people to meaningful opportunities by 2030.

How does The ROOM achieve this mission?

The three main pillars that guide the success of The ROOM are: 

Curating Talent

The ROOM is the home of a wide range of talent taken from across the continent. Our talent is curated from the African Leadership Academy, African Leadership University, ALX and other partner programmes. They all become members of The ROOM Fellowship.


All our talent is carefully trained in both technical and thought leadership skills, imbued with a “doer’s” mindset. Having them come through the process allows us to gain thousands of data points on each  individual, as well as a truer understanding of their character; all advantages in the hiring process.

The ROOM Intelligence Platform(TRIP): 

TRIP is the bespoke artificial intelligence platform that will allow The ROOM to quickly select and connect employers to top talent depending on their required needs. 


Once complete, TRIP will be able to instantly select and shortlist the best candidates for any vacancy or request by any employer.

Our Community

The ROOM is all about building relationships that lead to impact. Our community is a big way for The ROOM to achieve this goal. 

Our portals and sub-brands are there to help build connections, share opportunities and foster their relationships to ensure the collective development of The ROOM Community into the future.

Our supporting pillars

These are the key messages that support our positioning and differentiate us from our competitors. We want to bring these and our positioning to life across our messaging, content, case studies, and website.

Vetted for you

All our talent is vetted with over 200 data points to track their ability, strengths and fit for your organisation. 

Custom for you

Depending on your needs, The ROOM provides custom solutions that integrate in to your own hiring and organisational processes.

Working for you

While employed by The ROOM, our talent will be a part of your business, firmly focussed on delivering on your objectives.

Attributes

Positioning Narrative

Target Customer

Employers are frustrated by the quality of talent they’re finding and looking for a higher quality talent pool. Frustrated by the lack of verified information or validation on potential candidates.

The Rate of Change

Technology is causing radical change across all landscapes – creating a demand for talent in the fields needed to support this change. Finding reputable talent, at speed and scale is more vital than ever to ensure business sustainability and success.

The Villain

The greatest cost of finding the right talent is time. Time is money. But rushing to find talent can end up being more costly in the long run. 

The Promised Land
