Episode 28 Warwick Gill - #WisdomPersonified Conversations with Dudu Msomi

Loading player...
Living consciously and with gusto are the greatest wisdoms I have learnt from Warwick Gill, CEO of Freethinking whom I have known since 2005 as our highly intelligent, raucous, and hilarious MBA classmate at Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS). Warrick is individual who in his youth was not guaranteed a long life because of fragile health challenges. Like all of us are not guaranteed. Sometimes we forget that.

Warwick shares insights on disability that every leader and every individual would benefit from. It is not always possible to walk in someone else’s shoes so that we have empathy for the diversity of human experiences. This conversation will come remarkably close to curing many of us from being tone deaf about disability and help us to deeply appreciate that having different abilities does not make some of us inferior and some of us superior. The opportunity is for all of us to live our best lives with the abilities that we have and to create an environment in our world where all abilities can strive and thrive.

February is a Love month. Show love. Be Love to everyone you meet – face to face or virtually.
