Nneka Kyari

My name is Nneka Kyari, and I am an MBA candidate and Forté Ambassador at the Schulich School of Business.

I am a recipient of the prestigious Forte Fellowship for diverse women with records of exemplary leadership. This support was pivotal in my decision to return to school for an MBA after nearly two decades of starting a family, raising my children, and successfully running local businesses. Through Forté, I connected with a community of like-minded women who have refused to be held back by societal stereotypes.

The Forté Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing women in business leadership. It provides support through scholarships, networking opportunities, and educational programs, aiming to increase the number of women in MBA programs and leadership roles across various industries. Forté partners with leading business schools, corporations, and other organizations to empower women with the tools, resources, and community needed to succeed in their careers.
