Leadership that Multiplies
RIT trains leaders who train other leaders. This programme builds the habits of coaching, delegation and honest feedback that turn one strong manager into a team of them.

Many capable leaders have only been kept small.
RIT trains hospitality teams, organisations and churches to lead in open water.
The Founder
Ann Peggy Ashira, MBA
From waitress to founder.
Ann Peggy Ashira began as a waitress at Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort in Mombasa in 2004, and was promoted six times in six years under the sponsorship of her mentor, Mohammed Hersi. Mary Mukindia gave her first General Manager appointment. Hasnain Noorani appointed her the first female General Manager of a five star resort in Kenya. That journey, more than 25 years in coastal, safari and wellness hospitality, is the foundation RIT with Ashira is built on.

Programmes
Training built around real outcomes.
Organisation Culture and its Impact on Performance
Culture is not a poster on the wall. RIT works with leadership teams to name the culture they actually have, then builds the practices that move it toward the one that serves guests, members or congregants well.
Enquire about this programmeGrowth Through Feedback
Most teams avoid honest feedback because no one has taught them how to give it well. This programme builds a culture where feedback is expected, welcomed and used to grow people rather than to punish them.
