Why Young Men Stopped Talking to Women Ft. Oabona Kgengwenyane

Oabona Kgengwenyane built five companies across five African countries, including Botswana's biggest homegrown consultancy — but he walked away from a comfortable mining career in 1999 to do it. So when he talks about how Botswana clawed its way from scarcity to one of the continent's fastest-growing economies, he's not reciting theory. He watched it happen and helped shape parts of it. Then the conversation turns, and it keeps turning. He argues that sugar is doing quiet damage to a whole continent and should be pulled from shop shelves entirely. He drops a statistic about young men today that genuinely stops you — that a startling share of 25-year-olds have never so much as spoken to a girl, and what the internet has done to courtship in the process. He gets into why he thinks happiness isn't something you simply decide on, but something handed to you by genes and circumstance. And he lays out, plainly, where African entrepreneurs keep tripping themselves up and what it actually takes to build something that lasts. It's the kind of talk where you came for the business advice and stayed for everything else. — Enjoying Dialogues with Jagero?
