Vusi - I remember a good while back seeing a phenomenal interview shared via WhatsApp of a man talking about how to start a business and all facets thereof, and that great man (- at least I think so) used an example of if you want to own a chicken farm, start by selling eggs. I can recall thinking to myself, WHO is this man? Today, I met you, coincidently, stumbling across an interview with Micheal Jordaan (researching Bank Zero).
You are such an inspiration, and I am looking forward on hopefully someday meeting you! Thank you for bringing logic and hard work back into our society. You are going places! #Watchthisspace
Best,
Henro

It's refreshing to have an interviewer ask the right questions not the exiting ones

[@markaikiriza5858]

My take aways:
-developing the metrics around the 3 important factors to my business, focus on those and the rest is noise;
-investing in growing a culture in my team such as adaptability, will go a long way;
-throwing it all in and committing, no alternatives but to survive;
-the CASE philosophy;
-be careful not to overestimate the short termand underestimate the long term (irrational exuberance)....
wow! I had to replay a few times! Just incredible deliberations here! Many many thanks Mr. Vusi and MyGrowthFund SA! Such an empowering, mind-boggling episode!

I am completely blown by the fact that being backed up (board of advisers) by reputable people in the industry can actually boost your startup company valuation by x2. It's amazing insight and I'm definitely getting the right people to advice me in my tech startup. Thanks Vusi

[@heltonmalambane647]

Karl Westvig, what a brain. And Vusi nailed the questions as always.

[@massomahaddison1719]

Hello Vusi , would you please make more osmosis videos. I find them super helpful... cheers

[@hlalumid]

3 things I've learnt from this interview
1. How much I've underestimated the explosive minds of our entrepreneurs
2.How much lack of potential/opportunity there actually should be in S.A
3. How wonderful Vusi's line of questioning is. Every q hit the nail on the head!!
Best interview I've witnessed in months.

[@chuckdambuza3938]

Wow, I'm speechless

[@khangelwakhathi508]

It is so important for employers to get feedback on employees bcoz employees ultimately determine the success of the business or organization. Unfortunately employers dont do that

[@ignitiusmabusela7128]

love it

[@MrSibabale]

Hey Vusi, we love what you are doing keep it up. Please in the future (if possible) have space for questions from the viewers or followers. I say (if possible) because I doubt these videos are live, however, you can let us know of your next guest in advance and we can send in questions and you choose 2 or 3.

[@nomattermunyanduri5753]
