Dear EO Kenya Members,
We are pleased to announce the results of our recent elect elect presidential election that was conducted online. We had a turnout of over 70% and we thank all, for participating in this important event.
Please join us in congratulating Rupen Shah, our President ElectElect for the year 2027-2028. We are confident that his leadership will continue to elevate EO Kenya’s mission and impact. We also extend our heartfelt thanks to James Savage for volunteering on the path of leadership. Your strength, clarity, and commitment during your tenure on the board have been and continues to be deeply appreciated. EO Kenya is stronger because of the calibre of both candidates, and the spirit in which this election was conducted.
We do encourage all members to continue to lead in regional positions. Kenya needs a voice at the MEPA level, and your

Running a business is hard, leading one is harder. In this powerful fireside chat, executive coach and board director Laurie Fuller pulls back the curtain on what really holds entrepreneurs back: The heroic instinct to do it all, the exhaustion of constant firefighting, and the silence that comes when there’s no one to challenge your thinking. Drawing on stories from entrepreneurs, Laurie reveals the practical habits that turn busy operators into strategic leaders. She’ll also unpack why governance and board readiness aren’t just for large corporations, they’re the hidden levers that create accountability, attract capital, and allow companies to grow beyond the individual at the top.
Beyond the Business isn’t about more hustle, it’s about transformation. Because great

Recap on Leadership and Culture in the Keyan Market
Last week’s EO learning event with Paul Kasimu was truly outstanding, a deep dive into the heart of leadership, culture, and purpose. Paul, an award-winning HR thought leader and former Chief Human Resources Officer at Safaricom, brought a wealth of experience from leading transformation across some of Africa’s top organisations. He challenged members to think differently about how they align people, performance, and purpose, sharing practical strategies drawn from his career spanning banking, aviation, FMCG, technology, and social impact sectors.
It was inspiring to hear Paul’s authentic perspective as a Kenyan leader who has successfully built and sustained highperformance cultures. His real-world examples, actionable tools, and personal insights left every attendee reflecting on how to strengthen leadership and culture within their own businesses. A truly engaging session that reminded us that great organisations don’t just manage people—they inspire purpose, nurture growth, and lead with impact.
Don’t just be part of EO, help lead it
Leadership is at the heart of EO. It’s how we grow as individuals, give back to our community, and create the kind of connections that make EO so powerful. Taking on a leadership role isn’t just about serving others – it’s one of the fastest ways to learn, expand your network, and truly live EO’s values.
