Mpumelelo Mpofu is a pioneering thinker, practitioner, and systems architect

whose groundbreaking work spans personal transformation, family dynamics,

organisational wellbeing, and societal change. With over two decades of direct

experience working with children, families, and trauma recovery, his revolutionary

concept of Compassion Economics reframes compassion as a finite, measurable,

and renewable resource—as critical to manage as time, money, or energy.


Questions for Mpumelelo:

  1. How did you get into the work you now do?
  2. Could you please talk about your own experiences of boarding school in Southern Rhodesia?
  3. Could you please introduce "Compassion Economics"?
  4. What is Compassion Leakage
    1. Compassion Poverty
    2. Compassion Bankruptcy
    3. Energy Depletion
  5. Boarding School Syndromes & Colonial Legacy – A deeper dive into how apartheid-era Southern Rhodesia institutionalised false Christianity and whiteness, shaping trauma that persists today. This aligns with your work on systemic influences in personal development. 
  6. Why parenting Has Nothing To Do With Children.
