Growth doesn't happen in your comfort zone. Every board seat, every stretch role, every "yes" to something that scares you a little, that's where real leadership is built.

If you're waiting to feel 100% ready, you might be waiting forever. Bet on yourself anyway.

What's something you did that you once thought you couldn't? Tell us below. πŸ‘‡

Meet Lindah Samgul, our Communications and Membership Officer. In this video, she shared the thinking behind this year's 13th Annual Conference, and why it was an experience not to be missed.

05/08/2026

Three days in Diani. Eleven speakers. Conversations that didn't end when the sessions did.

We sat down with Jackie, member of our Policy and Advocacy Committee β€” to hear what the 13th Annual WOBN Conference truly meant from where she was sitting.

Her takeaways are a reminder of why we build this room every year. Not just for the content. But for what happens to a leader when she is surrounded by the right people, having the right conversations, in the right space.

Watch this. Then tell us β€” what would your takeaway be? πŸ’œ

Sustainability reporting is no longer a compliance checkbox β€” it's a governance imperative.

With the introduction of IFRS S1 and S2, boards are now expected to understand, oversee, and drive sustainability disclosures in ways that are material, consistent, and investor-ready. But for many board members, the standards feel technical, dense, and far removed from the boardroom conversation.

This session changes that.

Join us for Sustainability Reporting Demystified: What Board Members Need to Know about IFRS S1 & S2 β€” a focused, practical Board Talk designed to break down the new reporting standards in plain language, connect them to real board responsibilities, and leave you with clear, actionable next steps.

Before the conversations. Before the connections. Before Diani.

There was the work.

The planning, the preparation, the late nights and early mornings that go into building a room worthy of the women who will fill it.

This is a glimpse into how the 13th Annual WOBN Conference came together, and a warm welcome from our Co-Founder as we open our doors in Diani.

24/07/2026

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

Catch live at the annual conference next week in Diani.
