This is an interesting discussion between Tumi Makgabo and Richard Branson at https://youtu.be/y2nqsHvhwjw.
Per https://www.theelders.org/who-we-are/advisory-council, >>9365563,“Richard and his close friend, Peter Gabriel, had an idea about the need for a new leadership model for our ‘global village’.
Inspired by the role that elders play in traditional societies, as a source of advice, wisdom and experience, they took the idea to Nelson Mandela and were thrilled when he agreed to help bring a group of ‘global elders’ together.
Founded in 2007 with the support of Virgin Unite and a great group of partners, The Elders convened visionary leaders including Graça Machel, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Kofi Annan and President Carter.”
Tumi left CNN and made the following statement; “we felt the time was right for us. i have learnt so much in the (five) years that i have been with cnn, and i am looking forward to sharing that (experience) back home,” which can be read at https://tech.africa/tumi-makagbo-leaves-cnn/
