Hi everyone! Thank you for stopping by and I really hope you enjoyed this video! Let me know if you want to see more masterclass type videos with inspirational business leaders who have a thing or two to share! Let me know in the comments below xxx
Thanks Claire for this inspiring video! The surnames Wiese, Basson and Mouton are iconic business masters! I'm very fortunate to have the genes! My one grandmother (paternal) was a Wiese (Van Rhynsdorp), my other grandmother (maternal) was a Basson married to a Mouton (Piketberg)!! My oupa Mouton was a genius and was a blacksmith who designed agricultural machinery in the 50's!
I don’t know how many hours I’ve spent listening to Oom Christo in interviews and reading books about him, it’s impossible to get tired of him, he’s positivity is contagious. He is an incredible businessman and an awesome human being! May he live on for many years.
I am a black man; I am an ANC voter. Mr Wiese is one the tiny few business people I look up to. If he was not such a successful businessman, he would have made such a great President of our country. He is a very calm, rational and wise old man. He does not involved emotions in his decision making, he thinks with his head not his heart. I have been following his speeches for a long time now, especially on Biznews platforms, even now I did not know about this platform but just saw his face and I clicked to watch. In every platform he is always the adult in the room.
I love how real and down to earth the tone of this interview is. His responses are not some idealistic airy fairy motivational hogwash, it's realistic and practical. Thank you, really.
This is life and business lessons.... The best advice - ever heard - what a wise man❤It's.... Basics.... What 'stand out'.... Be positive and think positive, have respect and treat people with dignity and never give up!
Love this concept and idea of father and daughter having a real heart to heart chat. We need more of these😍🙏 Great video. A fan from Sydney Australia 👋🏼
I've been following Mr Christo Wiese after the crash of Steinhoff and reading the book "The Stellenbosch mafia" and oh, what a blessing he is. I always see his heart & humility in his talks.
Aw, what a beautiful and insightful interview, Clare. Your questions were very well thought-out. And Christo Wiese (your Dad) gives such sage business advice. Christo Wiese was a client of mine over 25 years ago, when his children were still at School. What a pleasure and a privilege it was to be in his presence. He has a way of making you feel heard and interesting. He was exactly the same then as he is now, measured, considerate, kind, caring, wise, interesting, interested in all people, and the perfect gentleman. I loved what he said at the end of the interview about being an incurable optimist.
Uiters bemoedigend!! Being a business man myself this 25min was very inspirational. Oom Christo’s optimistic approach is commendable and an example for entrepreneurs. For me, nothing is impossible through Christ!!
Wow Clare, thank you for doing this interview with your father. I grew up in a house where both my parents worked for a salary. The business world is not something I grew up with, so this interview is very insightful. Thanks
Great interview, count yourself blessed my sister for having an opportunity of sitting and having such conversation with your own father who has walked the path. I enjoyed it and took notes
Christo Wiese is a businessman I have immense respect for. This video reminded why I revere this man. He is incredibly humble, self aware, and personable. This is not a trait you would find with people who have achieved the stratospheric success he has and the wealth he has acquired. Good one Clare. Please consider inviting Messrs. Whitey Basson & Johann Rupert to your podcast.
Absolutely brilliant! Thku for the gold nuggets. Being an Entrepreneur is one of the most powerful things I'm doing in my life! A continuous journey filled with so much learning.
The father daughter interaction is priceless and an undercurrent that sets this interview apart. Perhaps Wieso is also a great parent...rare amongst great businessmen.
I really enjoyed this interview. My plan for 2025 is to increase my value, and be incredibly valuable to my business network. "Everyone can do it" , I loved that.
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. It was like sitting and listening to a dad share his wisdom (which he was 😊). He is very humble but wise, there are few of those people around. I could listen to him all day x
Mr Wiesse, i wish i can thank Mr Ranier van Rooyen. I come from Pep and i can honestly say its the best company to work for. I never knew how lucky i was to work there... i left my Job to become an entrepreneur and honestly Pep treat there staff with dignity and respect. Thank you for the great culture that you enforced at Pep. So from an Ex Pep employee i thank you mr Wiese
Thank you for interviewing your Father and I am already working on a project of the same scale and practise and I have learned so much from his conversation. Thank you so much.
So glad I came across your Chanelle and this episode wooow...so inspiring Seeing father and daughter.. I love your questions. Thanks tonyout dad for paving the way,,, I love the philosophy of Faith...
Clare you guys are so fortunate lucky to have father like Mr Christo and thank you for sharing him to us very good advice what more can we ask? just to follow those advise not to become like him because he is so special and none can take is place but we can make different in our corner once again thank you
Thank you for this interview with a legend.. great inspiration. And I can not wait to tell my little girl 7years Abigail the lesson about money and dam in and out flow. Great lessons and a true inspiration. Good lesson that all big businesses start out as a small business.
I've just watched this video now truly speaking I love the fact that Dr Wiese is a humble soul and positive thinker and amazing adviser I'm still early in my 20's hoping to learn from this video's thank you.
Your Dad made some really great points, especially around being out there and opening yourself up to opportunities. Thanks for doing the interview, Clare. I hope you are keeping well.
Me too! Love his straight forward talk, thought process, philosophy and the relationship with his daughter! Life and business is the best life! Ever! 🙏

Long live Mr Christo Wiese. He’s an exemplary father figure!
Beautiful daughter and father discussing business.. so much experience is being transferred to the next gen and us. God bless!
So insightful for so many of us. Skills for success. From one of SA's most successful business men. What a champ human.

25 minutes very well spent! Mr. Wiese is such an inspiration! Bless you both.
Your father is a great African. He has inspired a lot of Africans. God will continue blessing him richly.
My absolute favorite business man and deal maker. Mr Wiesse I am going to be as successful as you sir. ❤
Would love to spend a day with Oum Christo. A man with plenty of wisdom and gems to spare!! A workshop/mentorship with him would be breathtaking.
I've been following Mr Christo Wiese after the crash of Steinhoff and reading the book "The Stellenbosch mafia" and oh, what a blessing he is. I always see his heart & humility in his talks.
