“A 50/50 balance may not be necessarily what we need.

What we need is to have competent people within an institution that are able to lead.

I don't want to have women leaders that could potentially be role models for younger women who don't have the capacity, but are there just because we want the numbers to be equal.”

Ambassador Fatima Kyari Mohammed.

Permanent Observer of the African Union to the United Nations.

In this episode of the Modesta Mahiga 360 Leadership Podcast, Ambassador Mohammed speaks from her experience “Leading Africa’s Global Interests”.

If you've ever had to motivate that member of your team who does the minimum and calls it a day to be and do more.

Or, you have peered in another department to pull resources to collaborate on a project.

Or, need the board to approve a budget. Then you had to deal with what it takes to win with people.

The higher up you go, the less you need to prove your technical skills to secure buy-in from others. Rather, how well you engage with people, politics, and power will determine whether your teammate will step up, your peers will share resources, and the board will approve that budget.

In this episode, we will talk about how to win with people.
