Ethiopians view career growth and personal development aspirations more conservatively. Working in a multicultural global workplaces, the founder and CEO of Showing Up has proved it wrong and wished to inspire the youth to show up early and take charge of their career and personal development aspirations.

Showing Up up is the 1st key step leading us where we aspire to go. Once exposed, act with rigor and consistency, we are destined to fulfil our purpose.

Mission

  • To enable the Ethiopian youth professionally expose themselves early on so that they build the skills and mindset in today’s and tomorrow’s ever changing, global and competitive  workplace. 

Passion

Green Growth

  • Sustainable development is the only viable growth model that puts our economic growth with out compromising nature and it is up to us individuals to make the right choices and influence towards our common future.

Leadership

  • John C. Maxwell said, “Everything rises and falls on leadership” and I am in to buying it all.

Business Strategy:

  • As much as I am curious on development, I am equally impressed with the power of business to shape the development of countries.

Digitalization

  • If there is one thing that makes us equal at a world stage, it is digital. The wise, invest more and faster to create endless possibilities for its citizens.

Modern Energy Access(“Rural”)

Energy is an enabler to every economic sector. Social, environmental and economic progress will be constrained without it. Until we make sure that everyone has access to modern form of energy, I will continue to be a voice in all my capacity. My hope is that every Ethiopian ( and African) has access to energy sooner than

Motivation

The Limitless Possibilities & The Youth

  • Yichallal (It is possible), the popular message coined by Shaleka Haile Gebresellasie, the finest and greatest distance runner in history, and of course the business icon in Ethiopia, has never been more meaningful and inspirational than today. 

Digitalization 

  • Digital has created tremendous possibilities the Youth of today is tapping in to it at a faster pace than we have ever imagined.  

When supported by the right and timely policy tools and career and personal development guides, I am too confident that the Youth will shape the future where it belongs to everyone of us today and the generations to come. We are rocking it any way. 

They say,

The only way to control change is to create it,

And the Youth of today where Ethiopia & Africa proudly claims to own has the potential to create a new world order and its control.
