Dr Randal Pinkett — Season 4 The Apprentice winner — is set to speak tonight to more than 140 student leaders at the Sagicor Inspire Project at the Hilton Resort and Spa in Rose Hall, St James.

Pinkett, a Rhodes scholar, has established himself as an entrepreneur, speaker, author and scholar, and as a leading voice for his generation in business and technology.

He is the founder, chairman and CEO of his fifth venture, BCT Partners, a multimillion-dollar consulting firm headquartered in Newark, New Jersey in the United States, which provides organisational development and capacity building services to public and non-profit organisations.

Pinkett is also a partner in the Chicago-based joint venture Blackwell-BCT Consulting Services, which specialises in management consulting and information technology solutions for the US Government and Fortune 500 corporations.

Pinkett found fame in 2005 when he won The Apprentice — the NBC hit reality TV show, then hosted by current US presidential candidate Donald Trump.

The Inspire Project will see Sagicor Group Jamaica taking approximately 140 students on a weekend motivational retreat.

The youth retreat will serve to empower youth leaders by complementing their educational experience with discussions, motivational talks and other activities purposed to stimulate and motivate them toward continued excellence. The students will be hosted at the Hilton Resort and Spa from Friday, October 21 to 23.
