This week I Bumped into Abey Mokgwatswane who is currently the Brand Executive at Vodacom and is the incoming Chief Marketing Officer of Investec. In this episode we get to know the man behind the success. 

In this wide ranging discussion Abey & I touch on a variety of topics ranging from 

·        Being a black man in Corporate

·        Imposter Syndrome

·        Leadership and the mistakes he sees leaders making. 

·        Bad advice he hears in marketing circles 

·        Does being the consumer of the product you marketing make you a better marketer? Or not

·        Can you have the same impact on people’s lives in corporate vs starting your own business. 

 I hope you enjoy this wide ranging conversation I had with Abey as much as I did. The full episode is now available from wherever you stream or download your podcasts.
