In an era where innovation and leadership are vital for societal growth, equipping young minds with the skills to lead and create solutions has never been more important. This vision fuelled the success of our entrepreneurship and leadership workshop, which engaged 1,000 public secondary school students across Lagos State. The initiative was a forward-thinking response to the growing need for youth empowerment in a rapidly evolving economy.
The workshop was designed to inspire students to think creatively and embrace opportunities. Participants explored core entrepreneurial concepts like identifying challenges, developing solutions, and building business models. Simultaneously, the leadership sessions focused on critical thinking, communication, teamwork, and decision-making, equipping students to lead and make impactful decisions.
Through interactive activities, group discussions, and mentorship from seasoned professionals, participants gained practical knowledge and the confidence to see themselves as change-makers. Many students showcased innovative ideas during the practical sessions, ranging from small business concepts to community improvement initiatives, reflecting their creativity and determination.
This initiative reaffirmed the importance of investing in youth development as a pathway to societal growth. With this success as a foundation, we aim to expand these workshops to reach even more schools and inspire the next generation of leaders and innovators.
