Our Vision
Skills for Business Development, Inc. will be one of the most effective centres of its kind in South Africa by offering the highest accessible services that are designed to meet current and emerging market needs, balancing sources of increased revenue, and growing a vision-driven team.

Skills for Business Development, Inc. was established in 1998. It is a national presentation skills company and distant learning institution that excels at defining and developing the core elements of effective business organisation. We are committed to supporting the South African government's Black Economic Empowerment program and believe South Africa is poised for significant growth in the future. We are delighted to have the calibre of Samaria Mkhabela join us in leading our BEE initiative and Leroy Hitchcock as Service Industry Specialist in the Hospitality Industry and in doing so, we trust that we will be able to develop and train the most experienced and talented staff in South Africa.

We have also earned a reputation for excellence in the design and delivery of high quality corporate development programs, particularly in the areas of Soft Skills Training, Workplace Communication, Supervisory/Managerial Skills Development , Information Technology AND the Hospitality Industry.

We live the work we lead; we love the work we do

Personally, we don't stay static, nor does Skills for Business Development Incorporated. It keeps changing, evolving and developing just like people do. Some years ago someone asked us how we saw our future, and we said, "We'll keep doing this till it isn't fun anymore. Then we'll do something different."

What keeps it fun is the relationships we have with our clients, our colleagues and our work. We have a commitment to innovation and to 'moving the furniture' every six months to keep things fresh. We don't accept failure; we keep looking for other ways to do things. We like overturning the status quo so we can see what's on the other side.

We're quirky, creative, accessible, unpredictable, adventurous and dead serious about giving our clients the absolute best professional personal development programmes they can get.
