She Rises Leadership Academy: Applications Are Open for the Founding Cohort

If you've been praying for a sign to finally invest in your leadership journey, this is it. She Rises Global has just opened applications for the Founding Cohort of the She Rises Leadership Academy — a two-week leadership development programme built around one simple but powerful truth: you were not made to rise alone.

What Is the She Rises Leadership Academy?

The She Rises Leadership Academy is a two-week leadership development programme designed to equip purpose-driven women with the skills, confidence, and network they need to lead and create lasting impact. As the Founding Cohort, the first set of women accepted into the programme won't just be participants — they'll be pioneers, shaping the culture and legacy of everything that comes after them.

The theme says it all: "Rise with Purpose. Lead with Impact."

Who Is It For?

This programme is for young women who are passionate about leadership, personal growth, entrepreneurship, and social impact. Whether you're building a business, leading a team, driving a community project, or simply stepping into a new season of purpose, this Academy is designed to sharpen you for it.

Note: the flyer doesn't specify a country or state restriction, so eligibility appears open based on passion and readiness rather than location — but it's worth confirming this directly with She Rises Global before applying, especially if you're outside Nigeria, since the hybrid format may still have logistics tied to a specific base location.

-2-Week Leadership Academy — an intensive, focused curriculum

-Hybrid Learning Experience — a blend of in-person and virtual sessions

-Limited to just 10 participants — an intimate, high-touch cohort

-Interactive workshops designed for real engagement, not passive learning

-A Team-Based Leadership Challenge to apply what's learned in real time
