Four Hosts: One Final Conversation

Loading player...
In the final episode of RISK, hosts Kerryne, Doreen, Ashton and Chinwe reflect on a year of conversations with leaders across Africa and how those encounters have reshaped their understanding of risk. They explore the tension between boldness and stewardship, faith and wisdom, courage and responsibility. From learning to recognise our blind spots and challenge our assumptions, to navigating uncertainty without being driven by fear, the hosts consider what it means to take meaningful risks with God while remaining grounded in good business practice.

Ultimately, this conversation asks a bigger question: if risk is unavoidable, how should we live, lead and make decisions when our work has a purpose beyond ourselves?
