Her Executive Edge is a flagship Executive Leadership and Business Development Programme of the Woodhall Capital Foundation, created to advance women into senior leadership, C-suite, and board-level roles where strategic decisions shape economies, institutions, and long-term value.
As part of the Foundation’s commitment to leadership development, good governance, and women’s economic empowerment, this one-day intensive programme is designed for women at critical inflection points in their leadership journey—women ready to transition from functional leadership into enterprise-wide and institutional influence.
Programme Overview
Her Executive Edge addresses the persistent underrepresentation of women in executive and board positions by equipping participants with the strategic frameworks, governance insight, and leadership competencies required to perform effectively at the highest levels of responsibility.
The programme is facilitated by two distinguished leaders whose professional journeys reflect institutional excellence, global relevance, and purposeful leadership:
- Mojisola Hunponu-Wusu, President, Woodhall Capital Limited
- Tara Fela-Durotoye, Founder, House of Tara & Founder, Building Beyond You Institute
President Mojisola Hunponu-Wusu brings over 25 years of experience in investment banking and capital markets, with deep expertise in global business strategy, corporate governance, and institutional leadership. Mrs. Tara Fela-Durotoye contributes proven frameworks in enterprise building, succession planning, and generational impact drawn from her pioneering work in building enduring African institutions.
Together, they offer participants a rare blend of financial, governance, and entrepreneurial leadership perspectives aligned with the Foundation’s vision of sustainable value creation.
