Empowering African Women in the Corporate World

At 9to5Chick, we celebrate the ambition, resilience, and brilliance of working women across Africa who are charting their own paths in the professional world. Born from a desire to see more African women thrive not just survive in their careers, we are building a community where mentorship meets opportunity and support fuels success.

Founder’s Note

A Message from Glory Edozien, PhD

As a personal branding strategist for African female executives, I’ve witnessed firsthand how recognition, visibility, and community can transform careers. 9to5Chick was born out of that understanding a platform designed to bridge the gap between ambition and opportunity for women across Africa.

Through mentorship, storytelling, and curated experiences, we’re building a pipeline of dynamic talent from emerging leaders taking their first bold steps to boardroom trailblazers shaping industries. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to ensure African women are seen, celebrated, and fully equipped to lead with confidence, influence, and purpose.
