Zilingene, affectionately known to her friends as Zili or Ngene describes herself as a person who has big dreams and believes that she will be self employed in years to come. She says that she likes to work with people (team work) rather than on her own and she is very talkative (we can agree to that). Although shy and short tempered, she likes to hang out with friends. A hard worker who is able to adapt to work at hand, Zilingene always wants to experience things that are relevant to education.
The only girl among 5 siblings and the baby of the fam, her short term goal is to see herself complete her BTech in management and her long term goal is to one day run her own company in order to add value to our country's economy and create job opportunities.
In her own words, this beautiful young lady says, "Helping other businesses to grow is my passion and having professional experience based on the business management is my desire."
Zilingene's experience in business is rooted in her being an important part of her uncle's and aunt's business with whom she stays. She goes on to say, "when my uncle is not around, it's business as usual. We do not have to wait for him to return and be physically present in order for anything to happen. It is a family business and the whole family is involved cause we all benefit from it. Through that we also learn and are trained to run our own businesses in the future."
Way to go Ngene... We wish you all the best with everything you venture into. Starting, running and managing your business in a sustainable way is not child's play. We do hope that we can contribute towards your learning to ready you for your empire. We have absolutely no doubt that you can and will achieve that goal.
Welcome to your new home,
