At the age of 27 years, Rina Hicks was appointed by the President of Kenya and other individuals to lead and establish a national organization to revolutionize entrepreneurship among the youth. Being her first leadership role at a national level, she was excited to give her very best to serve her country. All was going well until hell broke loose when Rina rightly responded to her call of duty. This was her first leadership heartache, among many others she encountered along her leadership journey. Instead of allowing these difficult moments put her down, she has learned to turn them into seasons of growth and progress.
Rina shares her leadership journey and takes us through the various positions she has held, what they have meant to her, and how they have shaped her leadership competencies. She describes her calling and how it has guided her leadership, parenthood, impact, and legacy.
Rina is the Operations Director of Faida Investment Bank and a Board Member of the Kenya Association of Stockbrokers and Investment Banks (KASIB). She was one of the founding board directors of the Youth Enterprise Development Fund in Kenya and served Enablis East Africa, an organization that supports entrepreneurs. She is a financial and investment coach who hosts “Money Wise with Rina Hicks” on YouTube. There are over 400 episodes of this program. She is also an author of Money Wise and loves going to the gym.
