``The insights and knowledge shared during our sessions have been invaluable in helping me create the next steps in my journey and navigate the challenges of being a woman leader in Africa. In addition, the unity of fellow CEOs provides a safe space for me to share my experiences and learn from others, and the support and encouragement I have received have been incredible``
