He was a greatman who opened up my understanding of South Africaduring my university days.Tell us more about Nelson Mandela’s courage.Nelson Mandela identified the unhealthy systemic growthwithin the community and the nation.

What impressed me about them was theiremphasis on helping to build communities — instead ofjust making profits. They are leaders that placed peoplefirst — not just saying it, but rather doing it.What has passion to do with leadership?Passion is a big component of leadership. Identifyingthe underlying meaning and passion of the leadershipjourney allows leaders to keep persevering.The word passion seems to have a connotation withemotion. Is there not a danger in leading with the heartover with the head - especially when you’re leading bigcompanies that demand results?In running big companies, being strategic and the abilityto execute is key. Passion is the wind behind the sail ofrelentless execution.You were previously a lecturer at UBD. How doyou think you are remembered by your students?I think my students would remember me as someone whoinstilled in them critical thinking. There was a lot of technicalreflection in my style of teaching. I used to cover less than60% of the content, while leaving room for the students tothink, research, explore from references, texts and real lifeexperiences.20INSPIREWhy are great leaders hard to come by?Our daily lives do not require us to be great leaders.It requires extraordinary efforts, vision, discipline,patience, compassion, and execution abilities (just toname a few qualities) to be a great leader. And mostimportantly, great leaders take on great responsibilities,which very few of us are willing to take on. It’s usually athankless job.The difference in leading in Toastmasters is that it forces youto think outside of the box to motivate your team, knowingthat your team members are only there a voluntary basis.What has Toastmasters taught you about leadership?Toastmasters helps individuals to be more confident and tobe a better leader by working in a team environment. It alsoopens the door to a lot of ideas and opportunities which younever thought that you as an individual could achieve. I havebeen given so many leadership opportunities and the keytake aways are that a leader must lead from the heart, bepassionate to inspire and motivate the members, communicateclearly on what needs to be achieved, to trust and to give theopportunity to others to learn and grow, and to appreciate theteam for a job well done.The structure of the Toastmasters programme is that it alsoenables leadership training. Each member is also assigneda mentor to help them through their learning process. Allmentors do this willingly because it is through working with theprogramme to help others that they are able to practice theirleadership skills.What’s the most difficult thing about being a leader?The most difficult thing of being a good leader is the ability tounderstand your team members who all have different needsand wants. You have to bring them together to achieve a goalbecause you cannot move a mountain on your own. It is onlywith a strong and supportive team you can achieve gre
