Hi NjokeReally amazing profile you have and I must say very admirable As a woman and a leader, how do you manage the silent and unwritten expectations normally placed on women to prove their worthiness at high level positions? Or have you experienced this and how did you react in the situation if you did?

Great reaction!!! Trust me when I say we live in a man's world where for some reason even at the top echelon, woman are scrutinized. I've personally decided to be at my best and in most cases ignore the unnecessary pressures that come with being a woman. Developing a thick skin too helps in the sense that you don't take everything personally and remain authentic. Lastly, endeavour not to be a people pleasure because women are expected to always be fine with the rubbish that is thrown at them. I maintain my standards and work at being better and I break the rules for a living.

I don't know if this answers your question?
