JOHANNESBURG – Nominated for two Gender Awards in the categories of Inclusive Leader: Entrepreneur and Positive Role Models, Shelley Walters is one of sales’ leading female voices in South Africa.
She has transcended her circumstances to become a leader in business and is now an inspiration to anyone looking for entrepreneurial success. Her journey to a successful entrepreneur and small business owner has been one filled with hurdles, but still, despite the odds, has built a formidable career intent on inspiring others. Now, she teaches all who wish to strive for more how to overcome their circumstances by offering them the keys to entrepreneurial success.
Walters hopes to bring about better lives for all, but particularly mothers, sisters and daughters who, for reasons still deeply entrenched in our society, struggle to step-up and become the entrepreneurs they were always meant to be. According to Stats SA, the rate of unemployment amongst women is 7.5% higher than in men, and where they are employed, are generally paid less regardless of skill and race.
“The hill might be a little steeper, but it means that we are a little fitter for climbing it. Don’t be fooled, there are very few handouts in life and if they come, they are few and far between. Finish what you do – accomplish what you set out to accomplish, bit by bit, one step at a time, head strong and determined.” Being an entrepreneur is exceptionally difficult – make no mistake insists Walters. “It’s tough out there and I look to inspire as many people as possible on my own daily path.
