CALLA PR Manager Kevin Otiende has been featured on a list of top 50 Most Influential chief executive officers curated by Africapitol, an entity founded to celebrate the people and resources in Kenya and in Africa.

The ranking of the 50 most influential CEOs presents a key opportunity for these entrepreneurs, business leaders, and CEOs to be inspired and also continue in their strides of setting global standards & records.

Writing on his social media page Otiende said he learnt a lot from his previous employer Joanne Mwangi- Yelbert the CEO of the PMS Group Africa Ltd such as having a competitive fighting spirit.

“It’s quite an honour to make it to this list of Kenya’s Top 50 Most Influential CEOs with distinguished ladies and gentlemen that I grew up observing, admiring and mimicking like the Equity Group CEO James Mwangi. My philanthropic initiatives mirror his. He grew up without shoes, I grew up with torn shorts. That makes me want to be at the center in improving the quality of lives in Kenya and in Africa,” Otiende stated.

“All men and women on this list are doing great things, I’m honoured and humbled to be among them. I may be the bearer but I lead a team at CALLA PR. We are positioning at Gateway to Growth for business in Africa via strategic communications connecting brands to their markets,” he said.
