OWIT promotes both the growth of women in business and global commerce. I joined OWIT Nairobi in 2018, and it has been a learning experience and a chance for me to connect with women from all around the world. I got the chance to work with the Nairobi chapter for four years as Vice President of Membership. We provide programming and networking events appropriate to each geographic setting through our local chapters. In my capacity as vice president- Membership I serve as a member of the Executive Committee and Board, which is made up of 27 chapters globally. As vice president my role is to provide leadership and strategic direction to ensure all the 27 chapters gain maximum value from their membership. Show less
