🧠We just stepped out of the second keynote at the Science of Success festival featuring South Africa’s Leading Creativity Expert, Prof. Kobus Neethling, and media mogul Tbo Touch. Together, they delivered a game-changing masterclass that blended the power of neuroscience with the art of intentional living. 🔥 "Success often comes from challenging the rules and changing the habits that limit potential. Your solution often lies in the part of your brain you haven’t tried to develop or explore yet." This session wasn’t just about theory – it was about transformation. Small, consistent actions? That’s the formula for stacking habits that stick. Ready to rewire your brain for success? Follow the conversation. #SuccessIsAScience

I’m honoured and humbled to have shared the stage today with my incredible colleagues as we showcased our achievements during our quarterly review. As the Accenture in South Africa Lead for our exciting partnership with MTN, it was an exciting day filled with collaboration and innovation. During my presentation, I spoke about what it means to bring your best self to work every day:   - Show up with purpose, not just productivity: It’s easy to get caught up in to-do lists and tasks, but real value comes when we align our work with a deeper purpose. Purpose drives passion, commitment, and ultimately, better outcomes. - Be the leader you want to see in the world: Leadership isn’t about titles, positions or possessions; it’s about setting an example, creating space for others to thrive, and continuously evolving. - Growth happens in connection, not competition: Success isn’t a solo journey. The most meaningful progress comes when we collaborate, support one another, and share in each other's growth. In fostering connection, we elevate everyone around us.   The takeaway? Focus on impact, not just output. It’s not about doing more but about doing what really matter! I’m thrilled to be part of this incredible journey and excited for the impact we’ll create together. #PurposeDriven #Leadership #GrowthMindset #Accenture #MTN

n South Africa, Early Childhood Development (ECD) is at a pivotal point, with a pressing need to boost the skills and capabilities of ECD practitioners. To drive change at scale, ECD practitioners need extensive and accessible digital resources to help them access current knowledge, creative instructional methods, and interactive learning tools and improve their digital competency (comfort) levels. The Ntataise App (app.ntataise.org) aims to transform the existing landscape and play a role in facilitating the required change.  https://lnkd.in/dfJvh7ZF

 Primedia sale rumours ignite media agencies’ caution and curiosity • 15 Oct 2024 • MarkLives MEDIA - Primedia's possible sale: What it means for SA media • Foreign interest rises in African broadcasting. [Garreth van Vuuren 🏴, Martin MacGregor, Amanda Bester, Kagiso Musi, Jonty Fisher] - #OnTheMEDIARadar • WARC report finds 54% of Baby Boomers' media time is now digital, News24 South Africa welcomes former editor as publisher, IAB SA launches ethical charter for influencer marketing, and a new global marketing report finds 95% of marketers don't fully grasp GenAI's business impact. - #RamifyYourBiz • Company news from dentsu South Africa and Broad Media.

Kantar's Mzansi Consumer Barometer 2024 highlights South Africans' resilience amid challenges like loadshedding and rising costs. Optimism, especially among the youth, drives a hustler mindset, with many seeking extra income. Consumers are becoming value-conscious, using loyalty programs and smart shopping to manage economic pressures. This shift towards value-hacking demands that brands create seamless, value-filled experiences. I found this report insightful and reflective of our socio-economic landscape.

“Your personal brand is your commercial DNA” -Lebo Lion I was recently interviewed on South Africa’s largest youth radio station, YFM, to talk about personal branding. In our conversation I highlighted the importance of understanding the difference between a brand and a business. A brand is the equity you build for the value that you provide. A business is an entity that’s created to house the process of selling a product or a service. Both are valuable, and they have different uses. A brand is a long term investment that should be able to exist and thrive even if your business were to fail. What are your thoughts about the difference between a brand and business? #brandbuilding #business #brand #publicrelatioms #radio
