How is work in East Africa? cooperate culture #1 with Nicolas Synnott

In the first episode of the cooperate culture podcast, I talked with Nicolas Synnott about his perspectives on working culture, leadership and teamwork in East Africa. Having his professional roots in the Canadian start-up world, Nicolas now looks back on several years of working experience on the African continent. He is currently the Chief of Staff at East African Power, a renewable energy company based in Rwanda. Before that, he was based in Uganda and Gabon.In our discussion, we did not only touch on issues of cooperation and conflict at work, but also discussed the future of Africa in a globalized economy, the astonishing development of Rwanda and Nic’s perspective and challenges as a Westerner leading an African company. Hopefully, this conversation provides some insight and inspiration for leaders, managers, employees and everyone else who is interested in making work a better place.This podcast is brought to you by emtsev cooperation.
