    Building A Great Career By Embracing Change

    Chinwe sits down with Nigerian HR executive and leadership advisor Yemi Faseun to explore what risk really means in the context of careers, leadership and personal growth. Drawing on nearly three decades of experience across banking, consulting, telecommunications and entrepreneurship, Yemi shares why he repeatedly left prestigious organisations for unknown opportunities, why he believes "life itself is a risk," and how embracing change has shaped his journey. The conversation moves beyond traditional ideas of risk to examine readiness, change and the future of work. From managing your career like a business and recognising the signals of change before they become crises, to building talent, developing leaders and navigating multi-generational workplaces, Yemi offers practical wisdom for professionals, founders and leaders alike. If you've ever wondered whether to stay where you're comfortable or step into something new, this episode provides a thoughtful framework for taking risks with purpose, preparation and faith. ***** He refers to three books during the interview: First, Break All The Rules by Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman Who Moved My Cheese? by Dr Spencer Johnson Our Iceberg Is Melting by by John Kotter and Holger Rathberger The quote "His love, in time past, Forbids me to think. He'll leave me at last. In trouble to sink." comes from the classic Christian hymn Begone, unbelief Spotify · Apple · YouTube Podcasts

    Reframing Risk: Culture And Perception In Africa

    In this episode, Chinwe Okpala sits down with Nissi Ekpott for a rich, thought-provoking conversation on how culture shapes the perception of risk across different African contexts. From navigating cross-border business deals in the early 2000s (often involving literal bags of cash) to building purpose-driven enterprises in Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa, Nissi shares firsthand stories that bring the reality of risk into sharp focus. But beyond the stories, they also explore the real, on-the-ground risks entrepreneurs face in West Africa – from currency volatility to human capital challenges. Whether you're an entrepreneur, investor, or simply curious about doing business in Africa, this episode will deepen your understanding of how risk is perceived, navigated, and lived across the continent.

Jeff explains how Nehemiah’s example of prayer, planning, courageous action, and a refusal to be distracted from his mission, has shaped his approach to risk, leadership and decision-making across more than 50 countries. From crisis management during Middle East conflict, to the realities of doing business in Africa, to the personal disciplines required to sustain leadership over decades, this episode explores why faith and planning are not opposites – but essential partners in responsible leadership.

    Ready For Risk: How Diligence Leads To Plenty

    In this episode, Ashton Fourie and Andrew Jansen unpack the tension between risk and reward – and why what often looks like “luck” is, in fact, the intersection of preparation and opportunity. The conversation also dives into the practical side of risk management. Andrew outlines the importance of disciplined planning and the foundational elements that underpin resilient businesses – strong systems, clear processes, the right people, and a shared philosophy. These are the often unseen structures that make it possible to take bold decisions with confidence. At its core, this episode reframes risk as something that can be prepared for long before the moment of decision. It’s about building the integrity and clarity needed to recognise opportunity – and to step into it with wisdom. Spotify · Apple · YouTube Podcasts

    Risk Is Not Neutral: How Unconscious Bias Shapes Opportunity

    Ashton Fourie is joined by social entrepreneur and business leader Shawn Theunissen to explore how risk is shaped by perceptions – long before any decisions are made. Drawing on Shawn’s journey from a gang-ridden township in Johannesburg to leading enterprise development initiatives across South Africa, the conversation unpacks how bias and background influence who is seen as “risky” – and who is not. Shawn then explains how using his Three R’s framework (Risk, Reputation and Relationship) has tangibly reshaped risk profiles, unlocked market access, and enabled measurable growth for the entrepreneurs he has worked with. This compelling episode challenges faith-driven investors and decision-makers to reconsider how they assess risk, to examine their own biases, and to intentionally use their influence to unlock opportunities for others to create long-term value.

    Integrity At Risk: Understanding The True Cost Of Corruption

    In this episode of Ziwani’s RISK series, host Doreen Zaki sits down with Valentine Gitoho – Kenya’s first female chartered accountant and a woman whose extraordinary 45-year career has spanned continents and countless crises. Valentine shares some of the moments that defined her – from refusing to open a company safe at gunpoint, to walking away from a prestigious promotion in pursuit of purpose. Exploring how corruption quietly corrodes not only institutions in the here and now, but families and communities for generations to come, Valentine reminds us that 'doing what is right' doesn’t start with systems or governments. It starts with you and me. Every choice, every transaction, every act of honesty or compromise shapes the world we live in. Their conversation is more than a commentary on risk – it's a call to rediscover the kind of integrity that outlasts fear, outshines profit, and ultimately reshapes the future of leadership in Africa.
