Mary Muchai, elated and empowered, was among graduates of the second cohort of the George Wachiuri School of Mentorship. The event held on 29th July 2021 at the GMC Place KITENGELA saw 79 graduates receiving their certificates.
Addressing the attendants of the second graduation ceremony, George Wachiuri, Chairman of the Optiven Foundation elucidated the power of mentorship. He noted that stakeholders at the helm of top corporates have a responsibility to ensure young businesses thrive by holding their hands and show them the way.
Clad in graduation regalia, the graduates gave moving tribute to the scholarly team that was at the heart of their studies, led by Mr George Wachiuri. The six month course, done online on a weekly basis has continued to gain momentum and attract the young and the old alike.
Wachiuri encouraged the graduates to innovate and inspire themselves in order to create wealth. This he advised would enable them to join the few who think differently and make a marked difference on the global scene. Wachiuri challenged the graduates to mentor others from the grassroot level to their peers, saying this will be impactful through knowledge sharing.
Meanwhile, new cohorts will now be required to pay 1,000/- to join the George Wachiuri School of Mentorship. Making the announcement, Wachiuri noted that this will be a part of the mentorship program towards making philanthropy practical.
