Episode 30 Abdullah Verachia - #WisdomPersonified Conversations with Dudu Msomi

Loading player...
"The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high,
and we miss it, but that it is too low, and we reach it." –
Michelangelo
Abdullah Verachia, #CEO of The Strategists says, “I didn’t know
that a life like this exists” to my question on what vision he had for
his life. Abdullah is a poster man of a life created through a decision
taken by default leading to unpredictable and magical paths. Trying
to get out of something as a young scholar, led him into this
amazing life together with several critical crossroads along his
journey which could have resulted in a different Abdullah for sure.
He is passionate about #strategy and #innovation and building a
#learning mindset.
Peter Block says, “It is hard to learn when we think we know
something”. I think for those who think they know Abdullah; this
conversation may reveal that there is still much more to know.
Hope his sense of curiosity and his belief in learning every day, will
inspire you to think of your “Why” for doing what you do. And
reassure you on your path. Or embolden you to change course so
you can live your best life, yet. It is our Freedom Month. May you
live all the possibilities and opportunities that freedom affords us.
