012 Becoming an accidental consultant with Winnie Sseruma

Women in Consulting

Winnie Sseruma has been working as an international consultant for over two decades. She focuses on health training, community research, programme evaluations, and technical assistance. Mostly she supports community-based organisations responding to issues of social justice, women in leadership, and HIV and AIDS.

In a deeply personal and engaging conversation, Winnie describes how she became what she calls an 'accidental consultant' and how she spent 3 years immersed in the HIV world, from treatments to policy to support groups and more. She describes her journey as a steep learning curve and how learning to say no could be one of the most important lessons for us as consultants.
