What does it take to lead with integrity across decades—and leave a legacy that transcends industry? In this episode, I sit down with Sipho Nkosi, former CEO of @exxaro_resources and recipient of the 2024 Lifetime Achievement Award at the @aablawards .
Mr. Nkosi is widely respected for his pioneering role in South Africa’s mining and energy sectors, where he helped shape one of the country’s most successful black-owned mining companies. His leadership journey is marked by transformation, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to people.
In 2022, he was appointed by the President of South Africa to lead a national team focused on removing bureaucratic red tape to promote business growth—a testament to his influence not only in industry, but in national economic development.
In this episode, we reflect on the lessons that shaped his leadership, the value of building others as you lead and empowering the youth.
