Who Am I

Meet Onyedikachi (Yeah, you can just call me Kachi). I am leadership lecturer in the Institute for Leadership Advancement (ILA), Terry College of Business, University of Georgia. I earned a Ph.D. in Leadership Communication from Kansas State University. As a leadership educator, my expertise is at the intersection of Inclusive Leadership, Personal & Organizational Leadership, and Community Engagement.

I am also a passionate mental health advocate. I have over eight years of global leadership experience, leading change in the mental health space. I am the founder of Postpartum Support Network Africa, a leading maternal mental health organization in Nigeria. Before transitioning to leadership education, I worked as a consultant clinical psychologist. I hold a master's degree in clinical psychology and specialize in mood and anxiety disorders. My leadership work in the nonprofit sector inspired my interest in leadership education.

I am a 2017 Mandela Washington Fellow, a prestigious fellowship for young African leaders offered by the U.S State Department. I am also a Global Leadership Fellow, recognized in 2018 as among the top 10 emerging leaders globally.
