Mandela Washington Fellowship – Alumni Enrichment Institutes
The day the selection email came, I jumped on my bed with excitement. I couldn’t believe it and I wasn’t even expecting to receive the email when it came through. But before we go to America (screams with my inside voice), here are some things I’ve been doing as a Mandela Washington Fellowship (MWF) alumnus or Fellow.
The Stage
I have experienced the stage in different capacities, and over the years the art I share continues to evolve. My current focus is speaking engagements. I want to give keynote addresses, I want to give guest lectures, I want to inspire people, I want to tell my story.
Mandela Washington Fellowship: Leadership Institutes
Even though the focus is on using our strengths to succeed, a strength has a power and an edge. In simple terms, your strength can be your weakness if not managed well. Using your strength to its fullest capacity in order to derive maximum value for ourselves or those around us is harnessing its power. Whereas, mismanaging your talent is tapping into the edge of your strength. Achieving balance is key!
