The Founder, Nkem Onwudiwe, speaking on the idea behind the tag for this year- Her Year of Greatness- stated: “The path of greatness has already been paved for us; we just have to be courageous enough to walk in it so we chose to use this tag as a call to action for women to step into their greatness, unapologetically”. An important factor to consider this year is the growing number of superlative women in various sectors making impact in their organizations and communities and doing so with bold expositions.
