INFORMATION ACADEMY
Strategic Leadership, Everyday Execution
Institution Before Personality
Who We Are
Information Academy is a Botswana-based professional learning and institutional strengthening organisation.
We exist to address a gap that has quietly undermined performance across sectors:
the absence of disciplined administration and coherent information systems.
While leadership is often discussed, administration is rarely professionalized.
We focus on what makes leadership executable.
Our Philosophy
Our work is guided by two integrated frameworks developed through research and practice:
-
Botho Leadership Framework — the human and ethical operating system
-
Administrative Advantage — the execution and systems engine
Together, they form a practical model for:
-
self-leadership,
-
team reliability,
-
and institutional continuity.
Our Mission
To strengthen Botswana’s institutions by developing world-class administrators, modernising information systems, and enhancing execution disciplines that support effective leadership and service delivery.
Our Vision
A Botswana where every institution—public, private, and civic—operates with administrative excellence, strong information governance, and leadership systems that deliver results.
Our Values
-
Botho — Respect, service, and ethical conduct.
-
Excellence — High standards in every deliverable.
-
Integrity — Transparency, confidentiality, professionalism.
-
Execution — Results-driven, disciplined follow-through.
-
Innovation — Modern tools, creative problem-solving.
-
Service — Institutions first, community always.
Why We Operate With Restraint
We do not attempt to do everything.
Botswana’s implementation challenges have taught us that:
-
over-extension weakens delivery,
-
unfocused reform fails quietly,
-
and authority must be earned before scale.
We therefore sequence our work carefully and grow with proof.
Founder's Role
Information Academy is guided by scholar–practitioners (Dr Batlang Comma Serema and Dr Marguerite Margie Serema) with deep experience in:
-
administration,
-
information governance,
-
education,
-
and institutional development.
Our role is not to inspire — but to build systems that work.
