Adema Sangale is a businesswoman and social entrepreneur. She is also an alumnus of United States International University(USIU) and later Oxford University and Harvard University She joined Procter and Gamble as a result of a university recruitment programme. Her interests led her to the heart of any P&G operation in numerous locations around the globe including Africa, Europe and North America. Whilst at P&G she is most renowned for her pioneering ‘bottom of the pyramid’ solutions in bringing to global attention the plight of girls not attending school during their menstruation. She led the efforts to bring together a coalition of stakeholders from government, media and civil society to abolish taxation on sanitary pads. The key insight was that economically disadvantaged girls missed 4–5 days of school per month because they could not afford effective menstrual protection methods such as sanitary pads. This work spread to countries in sub-Saharan Africa, on the Indian sub-continent and was featured in a US advertising campaign for the Always brand. This was later featured in the New York Times. Adema initially served as a Brand manager for Always and Pampers in Kenya, Nigeria and Poland, P&G decided to elevate her to the position of Managing Director for East Africa.This was based on her passionate yet subtle management style.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gamble boss rides on topbrands to spur growth )〕 In 2004 she became the youngest local CEO to head a multinational company in Kenya at the age of 27.
