This week we speak to Jean De Villiers, Former Springbok Captain, current Supersport pundit and Head of philanthropy at Citadel Wealth Management. We quiz Jean (he is on insta I think) on all things leadership, success, transitions out of sport to philanthropy, and how he remained motivated for all those years of his career. Jean is consistent, honest and worth following through the course of this chat!
Katlego Maphai is the CEO of highly successful business Yoco. Based in South Africa, it has served to open commerce opportunities for many excluded people in the economy. The business is highly purposeful, as is Katlego. Katlego has walked a journey around the world and now leads this business with 3 others. He shares wonderfully about their journey, how they grow connections, maintain a culture whilst scaling, and maintain strength as a leadership team. It is quite fascinating if you are someone who loves a good success story
Kate Woods. Triple Olympian turned super manager. Kate is nicknamed the Lioness for her ability to be warm and caring but also as someone you dare not cross.

Kate is passionate and smart - and tells a great story or two.
Sam is a serial winner and inspirer of people through his actions. Sam founded GetSmarter, a now global education company, leads the ever-growing JEFF fitness company, and is on the board of Yuppiechef. There is no sport in this conversation, but there is no shortage of gold to gain from.
Springbok world-cup winning captain #2, John Smit joins us this week. A man who has made a name for himself as unflappable, inspirational and a wise head certainly doesn't disappoint. He talks his own journey, who keeps him in check, how they navigated tough times at the Boks and what it takes to be a modern CEO. We manage to get a bit more out of John than your average interview.
Stormers head coach, John Dobson joins us this week. As someone whom we have both worked with we really worked hard to create depth of insight. John discusses culture, individualisation of coaching, how he 'cringes' at his early days, and what his key 'metric' for success on tightness of the team is. A real cracker.
Kevin Foote - Former Blitzbok captain, UCT head coach and now defence coach at the Melbourne Rebels. Kevin knows people, he inspires people & mostly he makes them smile! Kevin shares his thoughts on love, coaching during lockdown, what you need to focus on when leading and what his own journey of growth entails.
Norma Plummer, former Australian and South African netball coach joins us to share her key insights on what creates success. The directness and simplicity are inspiring. She shares intricately about how she moved SA from also rans to contenders.
