The moment when you realize that YES, INDEED, you may have made the world a little bit better place 😊 Thank you @Leo_Johnson for inviting to share my memoir #choosingthehero and for the gift of your Learning Center to the young people of Liberia. @EJSCenter@MaEllenSirleaf
I still cannot explain how I mustered the courage and bravery to start building an organization one year after arriving in Canada as a young refugee but I am grateful for the incredible support from so many people. Thank you Canada for giving me a chance at life again.
Empowerment Squared's board of directors is pleased to announce the elevation of Executive Director @Leo_Johnson to Chief Empowerment Officer (CEO).
This title change reflects our commitment to empowerment, leadership, and innovation in everything we do.
My heartfelt thanks to @McMasterU for the honorary degree I received at the @mcmasterhum convocation in Ontario, Canada. This is not only a recognition of my legacy but also a recognition of the influence of African #WomenLeaders & their power to create positive change.
E2, @McMasterU , and @MastercardFdn are delighted to invite you to a public keynote presentation and conversation with Her Excellency Ellen Johnson Sirleaf on Tuesday, June 13, 2023 at 4:00 pm at LIUNA Station in Hamilton.
