Table Manners for Robots

From aspiring radio show rapper to computer software tester, Cory Warfield of Agora World proves that you can do anything and be anyone you want.

In this interview, Cory reminisces on his rough past and shares his diverse work experience and life-learnings. He also reflects on how the hospitality industry shaped his confidence, as well as his views on service.

Cory discusses the evolution of the internet, from the dot-com era to the expanding collaborative nature of blockchain and the metaverse through the lens of Web 3.0.

Furthermore, he shares tips on how to research the ever-changing complexities of the web to avoid falling behind, along with some revolutionary info on the exciting steps that Agora World is taking.

Finally, Cory concludes with two surprising bits of advice for all viewers to keep in mind.

SAP Africa COO, Tracy Bolton and LexisNexis CEO and Chairperson of the Board, Videsha Proothveerajh sit down with Chief Market Technologist, Kerushan Govender to discuss the future of South African businesses and partnerships. 

World-class experience | Cutting-edge technology and the application thereof | Proven expertise | Collaboration | A shared vision | The willingness to learn and adapt | Seamless solutions | The facilitation of complex processes | Maximum mutual profitability. 

These are just a few of the ingredients global ERP market leader, SAP, brings to the melting pot. 80% of the world’s companies can attest to this. Per Tracy, their vision is “to make the world run better” and they are achieving this goal, one company at a time.

Devi Sankaree Govender is no stranger to South African audiences. A power investigative journalist, she has spent 28 years of her life seeking out corruption, often putting her life in danger but always holding government, companies and individuals to account. After spending 18 years on Carte Blanche, Devi made the bold move to eTV and 18 months ago launched The Devi Show which broadcasts to millions across the country. 

Find out about the woman behind the Devi show. What makes her cry? What is she like as a parent? What does she do when she isn't "catching crooks in carparks?" Her thoughts on money?

Yes, we agree. We are getting inundated by POPIA messages all over the place. And as we much as don’t like adding to the fuss, we feel this particular aspect of POPIA isn’t sufficiently addressed. A lot of companies are missing some crucial actions to complete their immediate POPIA compliance. It is one thing to put policies in place regarding how you process data, but what about those you trust to process your data on your behalf? It is quite scary the degree to which our data travels into the hands of others by virtue of the software and systems we use. During this week’s show, we hear from the experts to help guide us. We’re very lucky to have partnered again with global powerhouse McAfee for this show. Senior execs, Laurent and Mo, share insights that make this subject a lot easier to manage.

Yesterday we tried something new. We created a compilation episode using some of our most exciting titbits from prior shows. We kept it within the HR arena and made it all about the "Top 8 things HR employees should be aware of right now." It is amazing just how many golden nuggets we’ve had lying around in our treasure chest. And we hope we’ve made it easier for you to enjoy them now. Do you like this idea? Give us your feedback after watching the show.

We had a great show yesterday. The feedback was even better than we expected. Our guest speakers from McAfee did a great job of explaining things clearly. It was easy to understand and answered a lot of the questions we have about the security of our information. I now understand why we still need to take action even if we have purchased cloud services from reputable providers. If you have any questions about your evolving your IT security in the new world of work, check out the recording.

In the spirit of keeping you abreast of all things tech, we could not go another week without addressing the topic of crypto. In this episode, I interview Giannis Andreou from Athens, Greece. He is a self-taught expert in all things crypto. With tens of thousands of social media followers who trust his knowledge, he is an influencer in the truest sense. If you ever had questions regarding the basics of crypto, feast on this episode and get them answered. It is certainly worth your while.

As you may know, we regrettably didn’t deliver episode 3 of our current series last week as planned. Yes, things went awry, and we had no choice but to postpone. The good news is that we did a repeat broadcast today and all went well! The team and I are very relieved!

The content was very well received, and feedback was excellent. Ironically, the show is all about disaster recovery (DR). If you ever wondered about the difference between business continuity and DR or about how cloud has impacted traditional DR, then this is a must watch.

Our expert guests Andrew Cruise and Benjamin Coetzer did a fantastic job of explaining important concepts clearly. They share invaluable advice that today’s business leaders must heed. Business disasters are more frequent that we realise, and we need a plan to recover rapidly from them.

We launched the third season of Table Manners for Robots. The show format has been upgraded. We had a ton of feedback and questions from the live audience. Unfortunately, in the excitement of things, I didn't get to many of the comments and questions. But, I made a promise to provide answers to all questions in the next and future shows.

Videsha Proothveerajh, CEO and Chairperson of the Board, Lexis Nexis South Africa, opened up the discussion with a frank and open discussion on the potential she see's in Africa. She talked about some of the exciting work she is leading, together with some of her personal experiences as a mother and CEO.

Dr Nick Bradshaw, the leader behind AI Expo Africa, shared valuable insight on the state of 4IR in Africa. I was curious to understand the state of progress in Africa together with Africa's unique contributions to the development of 4IR technologies. Nick addressed my questions and left me with a lot of confidence about where things are headed.

We closed off our final 2020 season of Table Manners for Robots with a bang! What a fun episode. Dumisani Moyo, Head of Midmarket at SAP Africa joined us as our expert guest. Dumi has a characteristic way of sharing pearls of wisdom in an easy and light way. It was a pleasure listening to him share his perspective on how dramatically business is evolving right now.

The thing I loved most was our discussion about our mighty South African spirit. We spoke about the power and breadth of local innovation. We also touched on the resilience that our markets continue to demonstrate. I cannot deny – I was beaming as a proud South African through the discussion. Thanks Dumi for revitalising that energy in us.

With that, we are grateful to have been connected with you through 2020. It has been a tough year. I sincerely hope that our shows and emails have brought some light (if not light-heartedness) through some of the darker moments. We were fuelled only by a drive to inspire and bring hope.

Thank you for walking this journey with us. We wish you and your loved ones a wonderful, well-earned break. Happy holidays! We look forward to reconnecting in 2021.

Best to you, my friend.
