A Personal Invitation to our First Message Business Breakfast

As the Head of Prisons & Enterprise at The Message Trust, I have the privilege of witnessing firsthand how meaningful partnerships, shared wisdom, and intentional people development can shift not only organisations—but lives.

That is why I am especially excited to invite you to our upcoming Message Business Network Breakfast, taking place on Thursday, 12 February 2026, at Gangstar Café in Mowbray, from 07:30 to 09:30. This gathering is more than a calendar event. It is a space where leaders, innovators, and purpose-driven professionals meet to share ideas, learn from one another, and collaborate toward impact that extends far beyond the boardroom.

Why This Morning Matters

Our guest speaker, Ms. Lize Moldenhauer from Omni HR Consulting, will be unpacking a topic that sits at the heart of every growing and resilient organisation:

“The Importance of People Development for Organisational Growth.”

As leaders, we know that our people are not simply employees—they are drivers of strategy, custodians of culture, and carriers of our mission. I am looking forward to being challenged and inspired alongside you as Ms. Moldenhauer brings her expertise into the room.

A Space to Connect With Shared Purpose

You will also have the opportunity to meet members of our team at The Message Trust, hear more about our vision, and see how Gangstar Café continues to open meaningful employment pathways for young people with a history of incarceration.

Every cappuccino brewed, every customer served, every skill learned in our cafés represents a story of restoration and possibility. And through your participation and partnership, we can expand that story even further.

I’d Be Honoured to Have You Join Us

This breakfast is an invitation—not just to attend, but to be part of a community of leaders who believe in developing people, strengthening organisations, and building a more hopeful future for young South Africans.

If you know colleagues or peers who would benefit from this conversation, please feel free to extend the invitation.
