Our
Approach
It’s a crucial and urgent imperative to have more women take on leadership roles in business and across the corporate sphere. It’s the only way real change can occur in the world.
The needs of organizations and society are so complex that they require a full range of diverse voices, and skill sets to solve them.
Creating an environment where different kinds of women can all succeed is crucial to socio-economic growth and development.

Enterprise and Leadership Program
The ELP is a practical, hands-on program that is focused on enabling the women entrepreneurs in Nigeria to identify business opportunities, create and sustain viable enterprises
The ELP Program was really intense and very practical. The Business Innovation and Finance modules were very enlightening for me. I gained a deeper understanding on balance sheet, profit & loss account and cash flow statement. The instructor really broke it down in a way that even a lay man would understand. From the business innovation module, I was able to see how we can better position my beauty brand to compete on a global scale.

Prior to the mini MBA, I was unsure what more I needed to do for my business. I had the passion for jewelry and accessories and had built something with it but I longed for more. This uncertainty drove me to apply for the LLA program. Each class, session and moment has birthed a new consciousness: there’s so much ground and heights to attain. With the skills and resources shared, I’m most certain my business and I will soar. It’s RESET time!”

I've done business passionately, profitably and especially undauntedly knowing the peculiarities of our dear country, Nigeria over the last few years. At the time when the scholarship came through, I had a nagging thirst for more. What more meant was what I was yet to find out.
From Day 1 of the course, I discovered that more simply meant "Reset". While I understand that this course has thrust me to new levels of accelerated progress in business and life, my own progress demands I reset. But this time - to be global.

When I applied for #ELP2019, I expected to learn something new that would help scale up my business but I never expected to be blown away.
It was such an invaluable opportunity. So many small things here and there that has the capacity to make my business a global brand were shared. Thank you Leading Ladies Africa, Union Bank and all the facilitators. I promise to maximize the knowledge I have gained.
