Onke Dumeko is the Editor-in-Chief & Group Publishing Director at The Bar Group, for DESTINY Connect and the magazine. She is an unshakeable woman who strives to lead a purposeful and impactful life and lives by the mantra that “Leadership is a privilege, not a right and it is to be earned in the arena of action because ultimately, leaders should not create great followers, they should create great leaders.” She has extensive experience in media & publishing, FMCG and the public sector. She is a professional communications expert, strategist, marketer, brand manager, writer, speaker, spokesperson and speechwriter.

We talk about what the title 'Editor-in-Chief' actually means at a publishing house, how The Bar Group was affected by the Covid-19 lockdown, why they decided to pivot on their original cover idea to the current cover's issue, and we discuss Onke's opinion on what Covid-19 has shown us as South Africans.
