Media entrepreneur, visionary fashion leader and CEO, La Mode Group UK, Sandra Odige, has bagged a honourary doctorate in Media and Communications from Myles Leadership University.

The prestigious ceremony was held at the historic Chichester Cathedral in West Sussex, United Kingdom on July 19th. This remarkable honour recognises Odige’s outstanding contributions to media, fashion, communication and cultural advocacy over the last decade. As publisher and founder of La Mode Magazine and a trailblazer for women in media, Sandra has reshaped the fashion media landscape with bold storytelling, purpose-driven campaigns and a global platform that champions inclusion, empowerment and African excellence.

From launching La Mode Magazine in 2011 while still in banking, to building La Mode Group UK into an international brand, she has consistently combined creativity, leadership and vision. Her work in media and communications has not only influenced industry trends but has also empowered underrepresented voices through initiatives like the Green October Event and Disability Inclusion Campaigns.

“This recognition is very humbling and reaffirms my lifelong mission to use media as a tool for transformation. I’m grateful for the journey, the challenges and the global community that continues to support and amplify our message,” she said.

The honourary doctorate from Myles Leadership University places Odige among a select group of leaders recognised for shaping the future of media and communication across borders.
