CHURCHES LEAD WEALTH CREATION MOVEMENT!

I have known Toyin for several years and really admire her. She is one of the most unique and impactful people I have met in Walmart and she positively influences everyone she meets. Her main strengths are her ability to perceive trends and opportunity where others only see challenge, her willingness to advocate for different perspectives and her ability to combine both to operational effect. She is a thinker who can also do, in my view that is a rare and precious combination. The energy that Toyin brings is tangible. I have seen her in various roles and am always impressed by her willingness to 'hack' her jobs. She will not stand still and is never content to work 9 to 5. She is always excelling in work while simultaneously adding value to the business and community in other ways, often having conceived and driven the idea in the first place. She is the kind of talent every employer should be searching for; she learns fast, relishes ambiguity, leads change and imagines the future

"We would like to thank you Toyin again for giving EXIM Bank the platform to educate Trade with Africa Business Summit attendees regarding U.S. Government export resources. The summit exceeded our expectations and we look forward to participating next year. I believe our presentation did increase impact as you suggested. Many connections were made and we look forward to assisting those companies grow throughout the Continent. Don’t hesitate to contact us should you need anything..."

Toyin brought to our organization fresh and innovative ideas; she has the drive and determination that we definitely needed. Her ability to hit the ground running and acclimate to the customs and business processes at Whirlpool set her as an outstanding achiever, always willing to step up to challenges and jump the hurdles in front of her has truly made her a valuable part of the team. Toyin is passionate about her work and never sacrifices quality to meet her deadlines, “no right way to do a wrong thing” is what describes her. Her integrity is beyond reproach; she attracts talent and brings out the best in the people around her. Toyin was and is a great addition to our team, a true team player. She would make a great addition to any team and can only complement and increase the talent within any organization. It has been a pleasure working with her and I hope to be able to do so again in the future

Toyin worked for me during her time at Walmart. She was a Sr. Mgr responsible for an SAP Sourcing implementation team. Toyin was a real professional and I really enjoyed having her on the team. One of my favorite things about Toyin was she always attacked problems with an out of the box mindset. She is strategic minded, detail oriented, with a very positive disposition

In an ever-evolving landscape of how business is globally conducted, Toyin Umesiri understands the changing dynamics of the marketplace. Her prowess is evidenced by her capacity to skillfully take any business through the full development cycle from cradle to launch—from conception to cashflow. If you have an existing business, her ability to reinvent and reengineer positions you or your organization to be marketplace relevant and ready. Her seamless ability to employ the perfect hybrid of business strategy and business coaching positions you to launch into the marketplace with complete confidence and competence. Toyin’s business brilliance delivers more than just theory, fluff or “secrets” but actually best-in-industry strategies and solutions that result in increasing value, sustainability, and profitability.

Toyin and I were on the same team to support Walmart’s Global Back Office initiatives and it became very evident early on that her skill set for driving strategic efforts in a multitude of business areas served her well throughout her time with Walmart. She quickly built key partnerships with stakeholders around her and Toyin’s unlimited passion allowed her to not only achieve, but go far beyond to drive business benefits for all involved.

"The consulting services that Nazaru provides is the best investment I have made thus far to launch and grow my global business. As i was preparing to launch my new company, I spent the summer engulfed in studying international trade. I enrolled and completed a Global Business Course at Harvard Business School Online. I participated in numerous government sponsored webinars on global trade. And I can say without hesitation I learned more in two days watching the Trade with Africa Business Summit than I have in the past two years on the subject of Global Trade. Toyin Umesiri is more than a CEO, she is leading a movement for economic development that will yield a positive return for the entire continent of Africa"

I have worked with Toyin on multiple projects over the past several years, two notable initiatives include implementation of SAP PM and SAP Manufacturing. Both projects targeted replacement of legacy systems with new standard solutions. Toyin is soft spoken and patient with her team members which facilitates successful change management. Toyin’s SAP knowledge in security, FICO and configuration were significant contributors to each projects overall delivery.

I feel very fortunate to have worked for Toyin, a leader who cares her teams professional & personal growth. With the ability to lead, Toyin created a space for creativity and improvisation. She is very diligent and persuasive but always honest and sincere and I saw how she used these abilities to engage and be relatable with others. At the same time, Toyin made sure that every member of the team felt valued and was given the opportunity to pursue their interests. She made time for regular one-to-one mentoring sessions and I always came away from mine feeling more motivated and energized. In short, Toyin is an amazing boss and mentor who looks out for the well-being of those around her.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Toyin for a few years. I attended the first of the amazing Africa Trade Conferences a couple of years ago and was amazed at the way she connected people together. She is an incredible networker, and expert in her field and has a great love for Africa which shines in everything she does. She is someone who is making a difference and will do this for many years to come

Her ability to bring diverse group of people together into a community is unrivaled and I have had the honor to have known her for a couple years now. I worked with Toyin on her annual Trade with Africa Business Summit which saw attendance from all parts on Africa and the United States. Toyin is excellent at delegating which is a very important leadership skill. She also takes out the time to mentor and listen to anyone that needs her help even on her very busy schedule

"Being a part of the Trade with Africa Business Summit 2020 has opened doors for Sprout Africa. We have connected with so many people who have empowered us tremendously. Our business has grown and expanded through collaborations with individuals and organizations that we met through the Summit and Toyin Umesiri . The information and mentorship we have received has also empowered us to expand in our home country South Africa, where we have secured partnerships and created farmer networks in various communities. This year we celebrate our first year in business, a milestone which many small businesses in our country do not reach, and we would like to thank the Nazaru - Trade with Africa® team for believing in our vision and giving us the opportunity to be a part of the summit this year. We are truly grateful for what the community has done for us. "
