Business Blunders & Brilliance — In this episode, Archie chats to Edmore Munyoro, the CEO and Co-Founder of Angels Foundation, a non-profit born from his home in Harare. With his friends, they have grown the foundation over 5 grueling years and now, directly and indirectly, assist thousands of Zimbabweans annually in different projects. We learn about starting a non-profit, it's apparently not all rainbows and unicorns and family doesn't always take it well. The lessons we learn when we start: how they conducted their first medical outreach with just a doctor and a stethoscope. Is it really a startup if you don't have an office in the CBD? Edmore also takes us through the amazing work they are doing as a foundation: Medical outreaches, a building project, soup kitchens, and a pad campaign...All of this unfunded. So much to learn in this episode, Thank you Edmore and the Angels Foundation Zimbabwe team for sharing your story. This is another zoom recorded conversation with minimal audio editing.

Business Blunders & Brilliance — Archie talks to Aaron Shoko, the Afro-insurer in the first episode in a series of lockdown chats around continuously improving. We learn why insurance is important and not just for old people. Your motor vehicle insurance covers a lot more than you know and third party insurance isn't really insurance. There is room for insurance as a business to grow in Africa, what is it that insurers need to do? This episode was recorded on zoom and I "edited" it myself. #KaizenYOU
