Betty’s Story
16 December 2024 | Championing Leadership Development to Build a Uganda They Want.
Betty is married with adult children and grandchildren, and she describes her family as her biggest support system. Her husband, a Member of Parliament in Uganda, is an important part of her life, and together, they create a strong foundation of encouragement and strength. Betty is grateful for her family’s support in both her personal life and her work.
As the Executive Director of the Global Leadership Summit (GLS) in Uganda, Betty is deeply passionate about leadership development. She’s involved in initiatives that encourage growth and personal development among leaders in government, the church, and the marketplace. But her heart goes beyond just the established leaders—she’s especially passionate about equipping young people with life skills. She believes in empowering them to discover God’s purpose for their lives and be fruitful in their communities.
“And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.”
“Enlarge the place of your tent, and let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; do not spare; lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes. For you shall expand to the right and to the left, and your descendants will inherit the nations and make the desolate cities inhabited.”
