Laissez-faire Leadership 

Yeukai’s leadership style is laissez-faire, which means she doesn’t always have to be present to keep things moving or make decisions. “I have systems in place and readily available to empower, motivate, inspire, and diligently step in where needed,” she adds. “I build leaders and teams.” She has always been busy with community initiatives. She is also a pastor who has mentored numerous leaders. She fosters creativity and encourages innovative thinking. She believes that team members are more likely to come up with unique solutions and ideas when they have the space to explore and experiment. This has been the highlight of the success of her organization. 

As a businesswoman, she stays ahead of the game by upskilling frequently so that she can be up-to-date with industry knowledge. She never fails to pursue her passions and hobbies, which also include modeling. She states that being a part of Legacy International gave her the opportunity to meet like-minded, determined, and intellectual women who have helped her demonstrate better leadership. It opened her horizons to the power of networking; she says, “You are standing on the shoulders of giants, those who have gone ahead and leveraged.” She highlights, “Having the right mindset is important. As everything begins in the mind, how you see yourself. Another is perspective. It is my favorite saying: everything you need is already on the inside of you. Dream, Believe, and Achieve.” 

Yeukai firmly believes that self-care is the most significant effort one can take to better themselves. She emphasizes that self-care is important for managing stress, preventing burnout, and promoting overall health and happiness. For her, self-care means prioritizing time to take care of oneself to maintain physical, mental, and emotional well-being. This can include activities such as exercise, healthy eating, getting enough sleep, spending time with loved ones, engaging in hobbies, practicing mindfulness or meditation, and seeking professional help when needed. 

The Evolution

As Yeukai’s organization is person-centric, it caters to the needs of clients and helps them evolve. Moreover, she is always focusing on her own growth and evolving her traits to better help others. She believes in self-actualization, as it helps her to see a more inclusive world of people with disabilities speaking openly about wheelchair poverty. This will also aid Yeukai and the people in coming together collectively to address their needs. “We are one, like Nelson Mandela emphasized in Ubuntu. I am because you are,” she adds.

Her legacy project, as the reigning Mrs. Australia Legacy International 2024, is advocating for better wheelchairs for adults with cerebral palsy in Australia and eradicating wheelchair poverty for poor children in impoverished communities. Her goal for 2024 is to raise awareness in such communities and raise funds for 100 wheelchairs for children in impoverished communities. “The events we will host will strengthen our community ties and dedication to giving back,” she adds. Inclusivity for children regardless of physical ability while spreading smiles around the globe has always been her personal priority. As for Corporate Healthcare Services, the company has embraced technology. She reckons AI has brought in a lot of savings on things like marketing, better-tailored research for better healthcare practices, and outcomes for people with a disability with complex presentations. She desires to continue to be the provider of choice for people with complex disabilities. She aspires to finish medical school specializing in disability medicine, make her company the biggest specialist healthcare provider in Australia, and expand to Africa. In addition to that, she desires to help every budding female leader focus on their goals. She asks them to find an area they are passionate about and master it to become specialists in that area. She suggests that these leaders must be decisive and solve problems, making a difference at the focal point. She advises everyone, be it from the industry or not, to spread smiles, show compassion, and give back to the community.
