The Sipho Nkosi Business Leadership journey
Sipho Nkosi is a South African business icon who has created a mining empire, but his father’s attitude to the challenges of Apartheid South Africa is what shaped his mission. “I saw my role as healing people, to heal the nation … to heal my team and I think we’ve gone a long way to creating people who mirror what South Africa could be if we did things correctly.” His story is punctuated with the good, the bad, the ugly … and famously iconic names.
In this face-to-face interview, Nkosi shares his journey to being a business leader, without any convenient self-censorship. Along the way he delivers personal insights and gems of wisdom – very much like the riches delivered by the mines that he guided for so many years. In partnership with FNB, Moneyweb presents this bespoke leadership video series with top business people. The interview draws on the person’s life, failures and the lessons they have learnt on their journey to the successful leadership positions they hold today.
