Bolaji Sanyaolu, COO of CSR-in-Action, recently attended the Women in Management, Business, and Public Service (WIMBIZ) conference in London. Themed “Next Level: Succeeding Beyond Boundaries”, the event brought together trailblazing women from various sectors to explore innovative strategies and share insights on breaking barriers and achieving unparalleled success. 

The conference featured a dynamic lineup of keynote speeches and panel discussions led by some of the most accomplished women leaders and entrepreneurs. Each session was packed with valuable lessons on leadership, resilience, and the power of pushing beyond conventional limits to achieve extraordinary outcomes.

Reflecting on her experience, Bolaji shared:  “The opportunity to network with a diverse group of inspiring women was empowering.  Listening to thought-provoking conversations and exchanging ideas with fellow attendees provided fresh perspectives on how to navigate and excel in today’s rapidly evolving business landscape”.

A highlight of the event was the keynote speech by Mr. Kola Karim, Group Managing Director of Shoreline Energy, a valued partner of CSR-in-Action. “Listening to him talk about his experience breaking barriers in Nigeria’s challenging terrain was insightful,” she noted. Additionally, she found the opportunity to connect with Omowunmi Akinkoungbe, Executive Director for WIMBIZ, particularly enriching.

Bolaji concluded by expressing her gratitude to WIMBIZ for organising such an enriching event and emphasised her commitment to driving change in her field. “The insights and connections I gained will be instrumental as I strive to reach the next level of my career, transcending boundaries and setting new benchmarks for success.”

The WIMBIZ London Conference, which took place at the Royal National Hotel on the 27th of July 2024, marked another successful edition of this prestigious event, bringing together accomplished women from various sectors to discuss strategies for achieving success beyond conventional limits. With the theme “Next Level: Succeeding Beyond Boundaries,” the conference offered a rich program of keynote speeches, panel discussions, and networking opportunities that resonated deeply with participants.

WIMBIZ, a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering women, has been at the forefront of promoting female leadership across Africa for over two decades. Their initiatives are closely aligned with the goals of CSR-in-Action, which similarly seeks to drive sustainable development and social impact across communities. By participating and supporting initiatives and causes bordering on women empowerment, CSR-in-Action reaffirms its commitment to these shared values and continues to build on its mission of driving sustainable development in Africa.
