Episode 24 Soma Zaaiman #WisdomPersonified with Dudu Msomi

I am in conversation with Soma Zaaiman, the Managing Director of BTS, who inspire and equip people to do the best work of their lives, creating better teams and better businesses. I have not met a South African more pained by our past, but at peace with how her race can be viewed by our history to not take things personally and to have the compassion to look forward and not minimise the pain and perspectives of what she has not lived as a privileged White female. I am proud to showcase a fellow proud South African who turns stereotypes on their heads and whose heart and mind are what I wish many of us would have to make this world better than we found it. She cannot understand why I selected her for this Wisdom Personified series. Her calmness is her strength. Her modesty intoxicating. Strength is not always loud. We don’t only learn from people that speak the loudest. On occasion, we must seek out those who exemplify extraordinary character in the mundaneness of life. Therein is hidden wisdom. She bears out the quote by Jonathan Harnisch, "The strongest people are not those who show strength in front of the world, but those who fight and win battles that others do not know anything about". Hope you enjoy my conversation with Sooms. That's what I call her.😄 #DuduMsomi #Wisdom #BusinessLeadership #Leadership #WisdomPersonified #ConversationsWithDuduMsomi #BTS #SomaZaaiman #Wisdom
