Egbe Adeoye host of ALV (formerly #TTARadio) in conversation with Yomi Jemibewon, author of Risk and Return and founding Partner at CardinalStone Financial Services.
Doing Business in Africa is not for the faint-hearted. But, for the brave who approach it with curiosity and courage, and are in for the ‘long game’, in the interest of both Africa and their own individual success; personal and business gains abound. Not always in dollars and cents either.
This is the message at the heart of Yomi Jemibewon’s book, Risk and Return. It’s the personal insight of someone who is in the trenches so to speak. It was a pleasure to read a story that lays the entrepreneur's challenges bare and still has the optimism to keep going. This book is important. As more and more of us Africans decide to ‘come back’ and build #theafricawewant it is books like these, and stories like Yomi’s should be part of any young African entrepreneur's booklist.
Enjoy this conversation with my homeboy, a man who has taken then time to reflect on the quality and impact of his actions and is recalibrating for what’s next. Risk and Return.
