Hello, I'd really like to grow this email list. If you enjoy this newsletter, it would mean the world to Jola and I if you encouraged one friend/fellow immigrant/colleague to subscribe…Very likely, the the only thing you will get in return is warm fuzzy feelings, and if I can attribute it to you, I’d personally send you a thank you email.
In this episode, I’m speaking with Mo' Ekujumi, Founder & CEO of SkillHat, who moved from Nigeria to Canada.
Not a lot of people get to move to a new country like Canada at an age as young as 16. For Mo, his community played a major role in navigating Canada as a young immigrant. From studying in Canada, having a smooth transition, and returning to Nigeria to establish Andela, our conversation didn't disappoint at all.
In this conversation, Mo and I chat about:
Moving to Canada as a 16-year-old
The Canadian Uber joke
Then, moving back to Nigeria to help set up Andela
Launching the first online MBA in Nigeria
The beauty of the Nigerian hustle
And the three skills he thinks every immigrant needs to succeed.
Some resources he shared during the conversation:
Tobi Oluwole’s LinkedIn storytelling course
$100m Offers by Alex Hormozi
The Millionaire Fast Lane by MJ Demarco
The Power of Self Discipline by Brian Tracy
