Dreaming and Doing with Songezo Zibi
Loading player...
How much time do you spend with people who don’t share your views? Probably not nearly enough, according to Songezo Zibi, national leader of RISE Mzansi, a modern political organisation of patriotic South Africans, who joined Mike Abel as a guest on this episode of Willing & Abel.
With over two decades’ experience in roles spanning the automotive, mining, media, banking and financial services industries, Songezo is an author, speaker, strategist and mentor. In an invigorating discussion, Songezo and Mike cover everything from balancing hope with realism, to really listening to people, focusing on what you don’t know (instead of the opposite), and what drives us when we feel like giving up.
