Join us for a deeply insightful conversation as we sit down with Herman Mashaba, a man who epitomizes resilience, determination, and a vision for a better South Africa. From humble beginnings in Hammanskraal, raised by his sister while his mother was away working in the city as a domestic worker, to becoming one of the country's most esteemed entrepreneurs, Herman's journey is as inspiring as it is remarkable. He shares with us the profound impact his grandfather’s deep and passionate belief in him achieving greatness had on moulding his life.

In this episode, Herman shares his profound insights on the importance of voting, emphasizing that our collective future rests in our hands now more than ever. He reflects on his decision to step away from supporting the ANC, citing a loss of faith in the government, seeing the ANC focus on keeping the majority of South Africans impoverished in order to maintain power and the need for a new direction for the nation. As the founder of Action SA, Herman embodies a commitment to revitalizing South Africa's political landscape and steering the country toward prosperity.

Vital to Herman's mission is his dedication to combating the drug epidemic plaguing South Africa's youth. He advocates for the establishment of rehabilitation centers to support those affected and underscores the urgency of addressing this crisis, which threatens to rob the nation of its brightest future.

 

He shares his belief that business holds a great deal of responsibility for where the country finds itself and how they can use their position to help uplift South Africa and move us back onto the right track. As a businessman he understands the value of appropriate partnerships with those who have the skills to get things done as a way of speeding transformation and growth.

Throughout our conversation, Herman's mantra resonates: "I'm a capitalist with a social conscience." It's a philosophy that drives his every action, balancing business acumen with a deep sense of responsibility to uplift communities and champion positive change.

Join us for an illuminating dialogue that transcends borders, reminding us all that South Africa is more than a government—it's a vibrant nation of resilient people, driven by hope, determination, and a shared vision for a brighter tomorrow.
