Stop apologising for changing jobs! - Mzamo Masito

Loading player...
Google's CMO Africa, Mzamo Masito, went from fighting to make ends meet to being a South African captain of industry - but his journey is littered with battles and second-guessing. Not what you'd expect from a high-flying executive.

He tells Nozibele Qamngana-Mayaba why young South Africans should NOT idolise Elon Musk, why Ubuntu is so underrated, and why changing jobs the right way helps you get ahead.

Just a heads up: there is some swearing in this episode.
