Real Stories. Real Leadership. Real Impact.

This Women’s Month, we proudly launch Women Powering Progress, a flagship campaign celebrating the remarkable women of SNG Grant Thornton who are shaping Africa’s next chapter of growth.

At SNG Grant Thornton, our purpose is clear: to unlock Africa’s potential and turn growth into shared progress that leaves no one behind. We believe progress is more than growth; it’s a responsibility that must include everyone.
  

This campaign brings that purpose to life through the voices of our women leaders across ESG, Tax, Digital Transformation, Forensics, Risk, Internal Audit, People, and Assurance. These are not just stories of success; they are stories of transformation, purpose, and future-forward leadership.

Each woman is helping turn complex challenges into meaningful progress—for clients, communities, and the continent. Together, their stories reaffirm a simple truth:

When women lead, progress becomes more inclusive and goes further
