  2. ''We thought, because we had power, we had wisdom…” By Stephen Vincent Benet Positional power in not your power. The power belongs to whoever owns the position.

  3. “Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.” By Rumi

  4. “One of the most difficult things is not to change society, but to change yourself…” By Nelson Mandela

  5. Ubuntu / Botho Ubuntu means:“Umuntungumuntungabantu” Which means: “I am because we are”

  6. Nelson Mandela on Core Elements of Transformation“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. As I have said, the first thing is to be honest with yourself. You can never have an impact on society if you have not changed yourself... Great peacemakers are (not just) all people of integrity, of honesty, but (also of) humility”.By Nelson MandelaFreedom fighter, ex-President of South Africa, Nobel Peace Prize winner in 1993, and Human Development Activist of note.

  7. We have no choice but to shift our paradigms and develop: New Mindsets & Heartsets

  8. Humane Intelligence (often called Ubuntu/Botho) …this is the ability to constantly recognise our human interconnectedness, and requires new Mindsets and Heartsets. This does not need brain surgery, but substantive and real changes in how we relate to ourselves and to each other, outside the boxes we create to simply our understanding of each other in our beautiful diversity.

  9. “We change the world one room and one conversation at a time…” By Peter Block

  10. Transformation is an inside job Meaningful transformation starts within each person and is transmitted outwards. What we see on the outside of a leader through actions, behaviours and ways of being, are fleeting reflections of what is really within.

  11. Self Awareness The best thing you can do as a leader is to know yourself intimately… watts and all

  12. World Economic Forum and Global Competitiveness Reports (2012) • Basic Education: 133/142 • Corporate Governance: 1/142 • Ability to develop financial markets: 4/142 • Inequality: 1 / 7billion Source: Louise v Rhyn @ Symphonia

  14. So, you’ve got yourself a job… How is that working for you? 29.8% SA unemployment levels Over 40 % in some areas in SA StatsSA: Census 2011 Reports

  15. How does it feel to be part of the elite? 13.6m out of 51.7m South Africans employed in the formal sector StatsSA: Census 2011 Reports

  16. Who is your daddy? 16million ‘Expensive’ social grant beneficiaries. Yes, these are our additional dependents. We have to deal with it, change it, and quit complaining.

  17. Rolling in it…? Whites = R365,134 Blacks = R60,613 Average per year

  18. My Stereotypes… Who gave you the eyes you see your world with…?

  19. My Stereotypes As a South African: • I am aware of my borrowed eyes • Perspective: I notice my prejudices • Action: I confront my stereotypes

  20. We have a duty to ourselves, our fellow citizens, and our children to: Source: Louise v Rhyn @ Symphonia
