On the channel Ken hosts a selection of outstanding achievers from all over once a month. Ken promises that there will be more interesting guests, so stay tuned.
Ken who is passionate about his land of birth, Zimbabwe, says his talk is all about engagement, connecting with compatriots and the world in general. “We want people to be free to ask questions …. weekly I will commit myself to select some of the questions and give feedback to our audience,” he says.
Ken graduated from Harvard school of business in 2022 after three years of study which entailed “300 hours of class, 75 hours of group discussion, 300 hours of reading and prep for over 120 case studies.”
In the interview, Ken says he believes that life has been his greatest teacher in various aspects as the transformation of a poor farm boy into a billionaire has not been a smooth passage.
Making it to the elite world of millionaires in his twenties before plummeting to insolvency is one of the lessons in humility that Ken has taken to heart. But it did not dampen his thirst for business superstardom.
It is such falls and his rises out of them that have given his show - The Phoenix- its name.
In the interview, he shares snippets that those who sign on can expect from the mentorship programme when it rolls around.
