George Emmanuel College High School, for the second year in a row, scooped two awards at the Zimbabwe Leadership Awards where leadership excellence was honoured at a Harare hotel.

The school walked away with the College of the year award, special recognition in academic leadership excellence for their accomplishments in the private schools education sector early this week.

The George Emmanuel CEO, Dr Leonard Chiwaya, was awarded Business Leader of the Year to complete the double for the Westgate based school.

The national honours were presented to the school during the Zimbabwe Leadership Awards, ZILA Leadership Award Winners presentation ceremony for 2017 Winners.

Speaking after receiving the awards, GEC CEO, Dr Chiwaya said the recognition was a pleasant surprise.

“On behalf of George Emmanuel College, I must say we are truly humbled and honoured to receive these two awards.

“This came as a complete surprise after we won two awards last year.

“Last year I was awarded Zimbabwe Top Leadership Excellence CEO of the Year Award while George Emmanuel College High School walked away with the Zimbabwe Top Leadership Excellence Academic Institution of the Year Award.

“Like I always say, George Emmanuel College High School is an institution with very hard working staff and students. They really deserve this honour and have worked so hard to earn it. It is an honour to work with, for, and among such people and they motivate me to keep surging on so that the school achieves more and more every turning year.”

The Zimbabwe Leadership Awards epitomize the core values of a successful leader – strength, innovation, ingenuity, knowledge and foresight – values that are imperative to carving out powerful businesses and organizations in the global economy.

Spread across various categories and industry domains, ZILA distinguishes and honours leaders who have contributed and shaped the Zimbabwean economy, and are visionaries behind today’s outstanding businesses and organizations.
