The premier community for young career and business women – She Leads Africa – held its innovative travelling bootcamp, the SheHive, in Abuja Nigeria.
SheHive Abuja, which provided young and ambitious women with new skills in climbing the corporate ladder, negotiating, developing a pitch deck, identifying job opportunities, speaking with investors and more, was a highly rated success.
The bootcamp saw 100 attendees over the weekend. On Twitter the #SheHiveAbuja hashtag made 2.5mn impressions in one week, whilst on Instagram the hashtag made over 5.5mn impressions. Participant feedback: 80% of participants gave the event a 5/5 in terms of usefulness with the remaining 20% giving the event a 4/5.
Speakers included the Nigerian Minister for the Environment, Hadiza Bala Usman (co-founder #Bringbackourgirls), Governor el Rufai, leading lawyer Asue Ighodalo as well as MTV Base and The Voice Presenter Stephanie Coker. These speakers covered topics including building a career in the public sector, how to negotiate, public speaking, and how to orchestrate an internationally recognised campaign. Governor el Rufai was interviewed by his son Bello and spoke passionately about the role and duty of men in ensuring gender equality in Nigeria.
