The L’AÎNÉ Foundation has launched Ellen Hagan Nsroma Program on Thursday, 28th March 2024 in Accra.
“This program will guide young women on how to balance their careers, relationships, families and faith”, Dr. Mrs. Ellen Hagan said in her speech during the launch event.
The initiative attracted some influential women in business along with more than twenty young women—aptly named "Nsromas" meaning "Stars"—who are set to benefit from the program.
Among the distinguished attendees were; Amazing Grace Anim-Yeboah, Director of Business Banking at Absa Ghana, Dr. Mrs. Irene Stella Agyenim-Boateng, Vice Chairman at the Public Services Commission, Ing. Patricia Obo-Nai, CEO of Telecel Ghana, Mercy Amoah, HR Manager at Vivo Energy, Nana Essilfuah Tamakloe – Marketing and Corporate Relations Director at Absa Bank Ghana, Essie Anno-Sackey, Co-Founder of Legacy Girls’ College, Brigitte Dzogbenuku, Entrepreneur, Politician, and Executive Director at Mentoring Women Ghana, Mrs. Joyce Boeh-Ocansey, Board Member of Opportunity International Savings and Loans and Audrey Abakah, Director, SME, Agency banking and Partnerships at Absa Bank Ghana. This tall list of accomplished women have been onboarded as coaches in the Nsroma Program, to hold the hands of the Nsromas to help them become more established in their careers, faith, and families.
During her keynote address, Amazing Grace Anim-Yeboah urged young Ghanaian women to pursue roles in profitable sectors, underscoring the significance of resilience and adaptability.
Representatives from various generational cohorts also shared their success stories, offering tailored insights and advice to address different life stages. Audrey-Bertha Nartey, Cultural Experience Curator, shared insights from her Millennial perspective, encouraging young women to forge unique paths and chase their aspirations. Mercy Amoah, representing Gen-X, delved into her own growth journey, emphasizing the importance of resilience, curiosity and a zest for success.
Dr. Mrs. Irene Stella Agyenim-Boateng, representing the baby boomers, recounted unique milestones in her journey, advising Nsromas gathered there, never to feel intimidated or self-conscious about their origins.
Rev. Dr. Solomon Tetteh Nortey of the Methodist Church Ghana also addressed attendees. Referencing 1 Peter 3:7 and Titus 2:4-7, he urged men to respect, support and be considerate of their wives, as wives should love and respect their husbands.
The Nsroma Program is scheduled to last a year until the next batch of Nsromas are onboarded. Throughout the program, they will receive curated resources to assist them to balance their careers, marriages, relationships, families, and faith. In addition, Nsromas will be given the opportunity to learn from their coaches through in-person meetings and job shadowing opportunities. The Ellen Hagan Nsroma Program launch event was sponsored by MTN Foundation, L’AINE HR, Villa Monticello, Twellium Industrial Company, ABSA Bank Ghana, KPMG, Kadina Catering, OneDaska Creatives and Powered by L’AINE Foundation.
