Every global challenge originates from our local communities, and the solutions to these issues must begin there. Whether it’s addressing social, economic, or environmental concerns, real change happens when we recognize the power of local leadership. By tackling problems at the grassroots level, we can create solutions that ripple outwards, influencing not just our immediate surroundings but the world at large. Local initiatives have the potential to drive significant global change, and it all begins with the courage to act.

It’s time for leaders to prioritize their own well-being—because you can't pour from an empty cup. Take care of yourself, and you'll lead with even greater strength and clarity. 💙 #LeadershipWellbeing #FillYourCup #SelfCareForLeaders

I’m sure you understand this, but knowing isn’t enough—take action and invest in yourself today. Remember: - Education is expensive. - Ignorance is even more expensive. You have to choose which "expensive" you’re willing to bear. Let’s commit to pushing ourselves to learn, unlearn, and relearn. Stay tuned for the National Leadership Conference 2024!

I record videos at all my events, and 90% of them don't make it onto LinkedIn. Some of the ones that don't make it are my post-keynote conversations. This one however, is special. I recorded this video whilst sitting inside Zanzibar Prison island with John Jet Tusabe, the Director of Tax at BDO in Uganda immediately after my keynote at the BDO East Africa Leadership conference. It's also handy when I bribe people to say awesome things about me 😆 #publicspeaking #globalspeaker #storytelling Amy
