    Putting a system to solving problems means making your problem solving repeatable and scalable. I believe the easiest way to do that is to publish and to publish consistently

    It’s not just ok to make a mental note of our experiences as entrepreneurs, there’s a need for us to document all our lessons both the good and the bad. Documenting helps us to understand when our strategy is or is not working, why it works and why it doesn’t work.

    In our generation, what people perceive is their reality and that determines where they invest, what they buy, where they live etc As entrepreneurs, we must be able to tell a strong story of our brands

  14. My convictions- use your setbacks as a stepping stone

    The journey of an entrepreneur is full of uncertainties, ups and downs, good times and not so good times. Rather that sit down and regret, we need to see our experiences as a learning curve, we can’t afford to live for what was or what could have been.

  15. My convictions- the future of work

    The future of work is a skill driven one where people will be hired not based on their degrees but based on their skills and the time to prepare is now. To prepare we need to be deliberate and ensure that our academic pursuits match our interests.

    Everyone of us have a set of ideals, we have a picture of the way we believe the world should function, how things should be done, what the right things are, I believe those ideals are a pointer to your mission on earth. Taking steps to create that ideal world would put you on the path of...
