Taking the leap regardless of readiness

“An average chick from Orlando East, Soweto”. These are the first words Nobesuthu Ndlovu uses to describe herself. Now the co-founder and managing director of Burgundy Fly, she began her career as a BCom IT student at UCT. After working in the banking industry for years after graduating, Burgundy Fly, a proudly South African boutique, came to fruition in 2008. “An average chick from Orlando East, Soweto”.

So You Want to be a Business Mentor?

A recent call for business mentors for SMEs by a company I work with resulted in an unexpected flood of applications. Hundreds of CVs poured in, the phones rang constantly and the company’s email channels were buzzing. There was even an application from Nigeria… clearly, there are a lot of people who want to be business mentors out there.
