My speech ended in a poem. INVEST IN WOMEN, INVEST IN WIMA When we invest in women, we sow seeds of change, In every heart and every range. Their dreams, like stars, light up the night, Guiding us towards a future bright. With each opportunity we provide, Their potential soars, reaching high tide. They blossom like flowers in the sun, A symphony of strength, every one. Invest in women, invest in WIMA, For together, we'll reach even higher. In boardrooms, classrooms, and beyond, Their wisdom and grace forever respond. For in their hands, the world finds its cure, A tapestry of hope, forever pure. So let's nurture their dreams with care, And watch as they rise, beyond compare. Invest in women, invest in WIMA. This poem beautifully emphasizes the importance of investing in women and the transformative impact it can have on society. @womeninmanagementafrica #inspireinclusion #investinwomen
