🌱 Leadership Lessons from the "Barefoot Dreamer" John Gachora 🌱 It's taken me a while to post my reflections on this very deep conversation, but I needed time to ruminate and let it all sink in. Here are my summarised takeaways from the session. Hearing the "Barefoot Dreamer," share his journey - From attending school barefoot to earning a place at MIT, his story highlights the impact of humility and community support. As the “forgotten one” in a rural family of 13 to leading in global finance, this is a masterclass in resilience, authenticity, and integrity. Overcoming challenges like cultural adaptation, education struggles, and corporate complexities—was incredibly inspiring. John's unwavering commitment to ethical leadership continues to inspire, reminding us of the power of staying true to our values. Thank you Nimo Kanina and Frank Molla for helping to bring out his story in a meaningful conversation and Romo House - Africa for hosting us. With such leaders in our midst, I can HOPE FORWARD that we can get up and not give up, we can turn things around in our country. #Leadership #Resilience #Integrity #Inspiration #YesWeCan #EveryThingRisesAndFallsOnLeadership
