About My Books

Writing has always been my way of sharing the lessons I’ve learned — from leadership and mentoring to personal development and change management.

Each book is designed to give you practical insights, real-life examples, and actionable tools you can use right away — whether you’re growing as a leader, building a mentoring culture, or developing yourself.

Innovation Africa: Motivational and Inspirational Stories of Entrepreneurs and Innovators from Africa

We have chosen six stories for the first series of Innovation Africa books. The stories come from Rwanda, Namibia, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, and Zambia. We asked our entrepreneurs and innovators nineteen questions that reveal their personalities, what drives them, and their vision for the future. For all of them, a vision that goes beyond their business to encompass a better world. The individuals featured in this book are not only motivated for personal success but for the success of their countries and indeed the entire continent. The stories of these individuals are truly inspirational; we see individuals that have faced immense challenges in both their personal and business lives; we see individuals who have to conduct business in some of the most bureaucratic countries in Africa; and we see individuals who are incredibly motivated to overcome every challenged place in their path. We strongly believe that entrepreneurship is the key for African countries in job creation and leveraging the opportunities of a globalized and connected world. Through entrepreneurship, economic and social change becomes possible from the bottom up.
