Introducing STYLISA FoundHers Boardroom

#STYLISAFoundHers has focused on founders and what they are building. But there has always been another layer that needed to be explored.

#FoundHersBoardroom has been created to explore exactly that.

The #STYLISAFoundHers Series, June - Dr Elsa Zekeng, Founder & CEO of SökerData

“If you’re not in the dataset, you’re an assumption.”

This line stayed with me long after this interview ended.

Money isn’t the problem. Where it flows, and what it sustains, is where power reveals itself.

The #STYLISAFoundHers Series, May - Joanna Maiden, Founder & CEO of SOKO Kenya

There is a tendency to look at founders and assume that everything changed in one defining moment. But more often than not, it looks like this.

Visibility isn’t neutral. In this essay, I explore how narrative shapes who gets seen, believed, and funded, and why storytelling is one of the most overlooked forms of power.

@AndieWinnipeg Congratulations 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[Lisa Maynard-Atem @STYLISA]

Good people are not a system. In Essay III, I explore why relying on individuals, no matter how well-intentioned, is not enough to hold power in alignment over time.

The #STYLISAFoundHers Series, May - Joanna Maiden, Founder & CEO of SOKO Kenya

We have been conditioned to believe that as a business grows, something has to give. Often, that something is ethics, people, or the environment.

[Lisa Maynard-Atem @STYLISA]

Power doesn’t become extractive through intent alone. It follows incentives and over time, those incentives can quietly shift systems away from service and towards self-preservation.

@jambofth51 So sorry for your loss ❤️

[Lisa Maynard-Atem @STYLISA]

Power isn’t a personality trait. It’s influence over outcomes, shaped by the systems we operate within.

The #STYLISAFoundHers Series, May - Joanna Maiden, Founder & CEO of SOKO Kenya

This is where real leadership begins. Not in knowing everything, but in creating the conditions for others to thrive.

[Lisa Maynard-Atem @STYLISA]

Power isn’t distant. It shapes narrative, capital and decisions every day. In The Architecture of Power, I explore how systems can reward contribution rather than extraction. The first essay drops this week.

Beyond visibility, revenue, and growth, there are spaces where decisions are made that shape industries, organisations, and outcomes at a much higher level. These spaces are often less visible, discussed, and understood. #STYLISAFoundHers

Check in on people. You never know what they are going through.

[Lisa Maynard-Atem @STYLISA]

A quiet realisation changes everything once you see the script you inherited, you can never go back to living it blindly. This closing reflection looks at what happens after the unravelling.

The #STYLISAFoundHers Series, May - Joanna Maiden, Founder & CEO of SOKO Kenya

From starting with four employees to building a team of 150, Joanna has created a model for ethical fashion that doesn’t compromise on values as it grows.

My final article in this series explores what happens when people stop living by default and start designing their lives with intention.

New Article:

There’s a moment in building anything meaningful where it feels like everything slows down. You’re showing up, you’re doing the work, and things are starting to take shape. But the response doesn’t quite match the effort. #STYLISAFoundHers
