  • Propaganda to Properganda

    This episode was inspired in part by King Kandoro's YouTube show called Properganda with Kandoro.

    Propaganda is a thorn in our leadership structures in Africa (and even across the world). Propaganda destroys lives, businesses, and relationships because fundamentally, these are lies. This episode, in part, is a call to action to young people to be a fresh set of leaders with a hunger for difference. Be leaders who do not depend on prying on how gullible people are and hence create false narratives that exaggerate your work. 

    As a set of new leaders, let's do the right thing: WORK!

  • If you want to be corrupt, listen to this first.

    This episode was inspired by the shocking levels of corruption within our African States. The greatest tragedy of Africa is having a few individuals up the ladder comfortable with plundering resources meant for everyone and thus leaving more than half the population in extreme levels of poverty. As the young people we need to realign our thoughts and uproot the individualistic mindset that so long I am well and catered for then the rest don't matter because the rest do matter. Shared prosperity is way better than prosperity from cheating and taking unethical shortcuts!

  • Where does Ubuntu stand in Leadership?|Interview
    Ubuntu was/is a critical part of our culture. In this episode, Trueman has a chat with Moses Machipisa in which they deconstruct Ubuntu and discuss ways in which Ubuntu can be reignited in leadership institutions and also how we can start that journey from the grassroots.
    As Africans, it is imperative that we have a new generation of leaders who are more concerned about the people they lead and this episode is highlighting exactly that.

  • Inconsistency: Who is keeping the leaders accountable?
    Accountability is the cornerstone of leadership, yet a lot of people do not pay attention to it. In this episode Trueman breaks down how having inconsistent systems often stems from having lack of accountability in organisations and governments. Accountability structures are a must in any and every organisation and as future leaders there is need to stress on that.
