    The making of a CEO: a story of risk, rejection and reinvention fr Shiku Njoroge

    In this powerful episode of The Rare View Podcast, we sit down with Shiku to unpack the real journey of becoming a CEO — one marked by risk, rejection, reinvention, and bold decisions that defied the norm. From working in 9 different companies over 11 years, to opening her first tender at just 16, Shiku shares how early exposure to business shaped her confidence and resilience. She opens up about how she turned unexpected opportunities — including Nairobi’s party and drinking culture in 2020 — into consistent income, making up to 100K a week by understanding demand and positioning herself strategically. We also dive into the power of connections and networking, as Shiku reveals how she entered the IT space with zero technical knowledge, dropped out in her second year to take a leap of faith, and how those relationships changed the trajectory of her career. In one of the most surprising moments, she talks about running for MCA in Kikuyu at just 21 before joining an IT company under the UDA party — a story that challenges what leadership is “supposed” to look like. This episode is honest, humorous, and deeply inspiring — especially for anyone navigating self-employment, sales, politics, or career pivots. If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to build something from scratch, this conversation will leave you thinking differently about ambition, timing, and courage. 🎧 Watch till the end for laughs, lessons, and gems you didn’t see coming. #entrepreneurship #businesstips #ceo #howtobecomeaceo
