The global wealth landscape is shifting, and women are at the helm of this historic transformation. In a recent video, Ida Liu, Global Head of Citi Private Bank, highlighted a groundbreaking projection: within the next five years, women will control over 50% of the global wealth market. This staggering shift represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to reimagine leadership, equity, and economic empowerment.
As women increasingly become financial powerhouses, their ability to drive systemic change will expand exponentially. However, wealth alone isn’t enough—women must also have the leadership tools, networks, and resources to channel their economic influence into impactful action. This is precisely where Strategic Solutions Global (SSG) steps in, equipping women leaders to disrupt systems, transform industries, and make the world a better place.
To celebrate and amplify this movement, Strategic Solutions Global invites you to the LeadHERship Gala—The Oscars of Social Impact, happening on February 2, 2025, in Atlanta, GA. This black-tie event will unite top global senior and executive LeadHERs, emerging leaders, financial institutions, and economic enthusiasts from across Africa and the diaspora. Together, we will celebrate the transformative power of women’s leadership and economic empowerment.
The prediction shared by Ida Liu is more than a statistic—it’s a call to action. Historically, the intersection of wealth and leadership has been dominated by men, but the tide is turning. With women poised to control over half the world’s wealth, the implications are profound:
Studies show that when women lead, communities thrive. Women are more likely to invest in education, healthcare, and social programs, creating ripple effects of progress. Imagine the exponential impact when women not only lead but also control financial resources at scale.
Women bring a collaborative, long-term perspective to economic decision-making. As they ascend in wealth and leadership, we can expect a shift toward more inclusive, sustainable, and equitable economic systems.
Access to financial resources empowers women to launch businesses, fund innovations, and create jobs. This is especially critical across Africa and the diaspora, where women-led enterprises are driving economic growth.
The LeadHERship Gala is more than an event—it’s a movement. Known as the Oscars of Social Impact, this black-tie affair epitomizes leadership excellence and celebrates women who are transforming communities through innovation, advocacy, and economic empowerment.
The Gala will also spotlight allies and institutions driving gender equity, ensuring that everyone plays a role in this transformative journey.
At Strategic Solutions Global, we believe that wealth is not an end—it’s a means to change the world. That’s why our leadership institute goes beyond training—it equips elite LeadHERs with the tools, resources, education, and networks to lead boldly and disrupt systems effectively.
By investing in women’s leadership and financial empowerment, we’re not just equipping individuals—we’re building ecosystems of change that benefit everyone.
Africa and the diaspora represent some of the fastest-growing hubs of wealth and innovation globally. From Lagos to London, Nairobi to New York, women are driving entrepreneurial ventures, advancing industries, and redefining global leadership.
The LeadHERship Gala serves as a bridge between Africa and the diaspora, creating a space where ideas, resources, and connections flow freely. By uniting women leaders and allies from these regions, we’re fostering a collective power capable of reshaping the global narrative on leadership and economic empowerment.
The LeadHERship Gala is not just an event—it’s an opportunity to be part of a transformative movement. Together, we can celebrate the rising influence of women in wealth and leadership, while equipping more women to lead, thrive, and disrupt systems.
Whether you’re a seasoned executive, an emerging leader, a financial institution, or an ally committed to global change, the Gala is your chance to connect, learn, and contribute to this historic moment.
Be Inspired: Witness the power of women united across Africa and the diaspora.
Mark your calendars for February 2, 2025, and join us in Atlanta for the LeadHERship Gala. Together, we can make it easier to change the world—one LeadHER at a time.
Leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge.
