We celebrate you Jeannette Motah. Keep shining.
Leadership is not just about what we achieve; it's also about who we are becoming along the journey.
Today, we celebrate our Co-founder and Head of Programs, Jeannette Motah, who was among the 29 women from the global sport sector selected for the five-month Women Emerging Expedition for Women Leading in Sport, delivered in partnership with Women Emerging, the Olympism365 Innovation Hub, Beyond Sport, and Women Win.
In this powerful piece featured on the Women Emerging Hub, Janet reflects on her leadership journey through football, community work, and motherhood. Her reflection speaks to the realities many leaders face: balancing ambition and wellbeing, carrying responsibilities, and learning that leadership is as much about who we are becoming as it is about what we achieve.

Congratulations, Janet, on this milestone and for allowing your story to inspire others to lead with courage, compassion, and purpose. We celebrate your journey and look forward to the impact your voice will continue to create in sport and beyond.
