This started of as something slightly different. At first we planned to host someone with extensive experience in the business space…and we will but that has priven to be a challenge. Instead i chose to share some wisdom gathered over the yeats after so many trips around the sun. You will find something about the unseen, something about the gods, wealth and borrowing, aging and vulnerability, naivity, loneliness, value, appreciation (probably my spiritual theme for this month of August), solitude,

So here is what we are cooking for this month. A few years ago i was drawn into the world of Ted Talks. I think it was at Hive Colab where one of the speakers mentioned them. Then one thing led to another and i found an interesting piece by Glen Greenwald. This is a presentation of his talk (in from of notes) with basic section summaries created by us (me). Many ideas to talk about surveillance, the role of the fourth estate, whistle blowing, secrecy, national sovereignty, espionage and control to

This months I have chosen to write about a question that was raised in a 700 plus strong group of which I have membership and to which I am playing a small part in its steering. The person asked about the relevance of Intellectual Property for people in Technology. The second part is an attempt to differentiate between two forms of mining as a means of deciding if one is a distraction or if both should be pursued especially in developing (even this is a loaded term) countries. The third is a

In Kenyan slang it was called Petho or Pice. It was a belief that some tasks or jobs were more prestigious and that others were slightly demeaning. Some of these attitudes can be hindrances to your progression in the world of business. We talk about the need to focus and the differences that exist between doing the grit of trade and the challenges of the same in the media spotlight. Maybe this is the curse of our age. The fact that we can hardly get time alone to build in private without some prying

Why do some people prefer to remain anonymous with their giving? Should you be careful when you are receiving gifts? We talk about some of the complexities that are at the heart of many of our cultures where giving is conditional and even if people do not expressly state it, they expect something in return…later even if that means after a life time. We share some ideas about thankfulness and wholeness. And for those who are students of scripture some commentary about what we can learn from the

There are certain no go areas in business. This might just be one of them. Most enterprises avoid the temptation of talking a little too much about politics and governance. But it is hard to ignore some of the obvious challenges that those we deal with or hope to create solutions for are facing. For example what type of impact can we claim to have if we are not solving important issues like security and poverty especially when some of these are intimately connected with bad governance? This is some

Here is a review of a series that aired on Netflix a few years ago about the Patent Infringement Case between Google and Terra Vision. There is quite a lot of information on the Internet that is written about this show regarding the content and accuracy of the story. Netflix went to great lengths to change some names and also was rather restricted by fear of Litigation from Google. At the heart of this story there are a few items that stand out.

We are constantly making decisions and judgements. In this conversation, we explore the historical (biblical) importance of outstanding leadership and the failures that can emerge in its absence. We look at one approach that was used in those days to deal with this gap-the use of Judges. In some democracies, we see similar relationships between the Executive, Judicial and Legislative Branches of Government and how a balance and effective use of these can help during moments of crisis.
