Justice Yonny Kulendi urges Accra Business School graduates to lead with integrity
Justice Yonny Kulendi, a renowned Supreme Court Judge in Ghana, has challenged graduands of the Accra Business School to lead with integrity, emphasising that their actions, choices, and sacrifices must inspire others.
Delivering the keynote address at the school’s 17th congregation, Justice Kulendi stressed the importance of leadership, conviction, and accountability in shaping a future built on integrity.
Leading by Example
Justice Kulendi drew from his own experiences, highlighting the values that have anchored his career.
He emphasised that leadership is not just about titles, but about influence, which casts a light in dark places.
“People should see our actions, our choices, and our sacrifices and feel inspired to follow,” he noted.
The Power of Integrity
Integrity, Justice Kulendi argued, is essential to effective leadership. It demands transparency, clarity, and a willingness to sacrifice personal comfort or popularity when upholding what is right.
He cautioned that leadership without integrity is tantamount to undermining the very foundation of trust and confidence.
A Call to Action
Justice Kulendi’s charge to the graduands was clear: to lead with conviction, accountability, and integrity. He urged them to carry the values of excellence, resilience, and integrity instilled in them during their time at the Accra Business School into their future endeavors.
Professor Elvis Cornerstone, President of the institution, announced plans to introduce MA and PhD programmes and investments in advanced databases and software systems to aid students in their pursuit of knowledge and truth.
He stated, “An award of degree from Accra Business School is a quality product and achievement that you and your employers can have real confidence in.”
Professor Cornerstone acknowledged the support of friends, family, and benefactors who contributed to the graduates’ education. He urged the graduates to carry forward the values of excellence, integrity, and resilience instilled in them during their time at the institution.
The Accra Business School, established in 2004, has consistently emphasized the importance of ethical leadership and integrity in business.
With affiliations to reputable institutions like the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Ghana, Wrexham, and SETU Universities in the UK, the school has produced leaders who embody these values.
