Our Executive Director, Anthony Ubani, appeared on @ARISEtv to further clarify the position and vision of #FixPolitics. He explained that #FixPolitics is a research-based, citizens-led organization founded on a clear theory of change: the *Triangular Pillars of Democracy.* Africa’s governance crisis is rooted in broken politics — and until politics is fixed, progress will remain elusive. *He outlined our three pillars:* 🔺 Active Citizens – Democracy only works when citizens are educated, empowered, enlightened, and actively engaged. 🔺 Values-Based Leadership – Through our School of Politics, Policy & Governance (SPPG), we are cultivating a new generation of leaders grounded in Character, Competence, and Capacity. 🔺 Institutional & Electoral Reform – We advocate for constitutional and electoral reforms that strengthen institutions, not individuals. This framework emerged from research by our Founder, Dr. Obiageli Ezekwesili, which identified one core issue behind Africa’s underdevelopment: broken politics. #FixPolitics #ActiveCitizens #ValuesBasedLeadership #DemocraticReform

When a Forest Becomes a Classroom Today’s Walk.Talk.Connect. happened in one of my favorite walking places in Nairobi: Karura Forest. For both @katemoger and I, nature is not just scenery; it is sanctuary. And Karura, in particular, carries a story. Every time I walk there, I remember the courage of Wangari Maathai and the fight it took to protect this forest. It is a living reminder that what endures is often what someone once chose to defend. Perhaps that is why our conversation naturally turned to systems change, values, and what it takes to build something new. We spoke about building organizations and movements that are values-anchored. Not as a slogan, but as a daily discipline. “It takes a lot of humility,” Kate said. And it landed. Because humility is central to building anything with care and intention, knowing the power one holds, how to use it responsibly, how to enable others through it, and how not to stand in the way. I shared about our Values Champion practice at @CivsourceAfrica. We intentionally notice and name when we are living our values, how we revisit them each quarter in our retreats, and how we hold up a mirror to ourselves when we fall short. Values, after all, are not self-executing. They require tending. And perhaps that is the real work when something is new: you have the rare chance to lay foundations the right way. The harder question is how to sustain that alignment long after the “new” becomes familiar. Nature offers a quiet answer. A forest keeps the big picture in view while constantly shedding, renewing, and regenerating. What no longer serves falls away. What is needed takes root. Growth is slow, but it is sure. I left the walk reminded that building institutions is not so different from tending a forest. You plant. You protect. You nurture. You trust that shade will come, even if not for you. Some leadership lessons are learned in boardrooms. Others reveal themselves on forest paths. And sometimes, the forest is not just a backdrop. It is the teacher. #WalkTalkConnect #ValuesBasedLeadership #SystemsChange

Christmas may be over, but the spirit of giving shouldn’t be packed away with the decorations. 🎄 Giving isn’t just something we do once a year, it’s a mindset we can carry into every day, in how we show up, support others, and make a difference in small and meaningful ways. I’m incredibly honoured that When I’m Santa’s CEO has been recognised with the Outstanding Literary Achievement award at the International Impact Book Awards. The message behind the book is simple: leadership, generosity, and impact aren’t seasonal, they’re lifelong values.

Lately, I’ve felt drawn to Kurauone—and I understand why. At its heart, Kurauone is a cautionary story about discernment. It reminds us that not every opportunity is a gift, not every promise is clean, and not every open door should be entered. Harm rarely arrives loudly; it often comes dressed as convenience, advantage, or progress. What resonates most for me now is the novel’s quiet insistence that character precedes outcome. When counsel is ignored and judgment is rushed, consequences follow—not suddenly, but steadily. Wisdom, the story suggests, is less about intelligence and more about the courage to pause, listen, and choose restraint. In seasons of responsibility, this lesson matters. Leadership is sustained not by speed or ambition, but by clarity, humility, and ethical boundaries. Sometimes the strongest decision is the one we decline. A timely reminder: Discernment protects long before consequences appear. #EthicalLeadership #Discernment #AfricanLiterature #ValuesBasedLeadership #Integrity #LeadershipReflection

Honoured to host Sh. Govind Dholakia ji at Daly College, Indore for a dialogue on Ethics, Dharma, and Enterprise. What stood out was the quiet clarity with which lived values were translated into business practice. Not as slogans, but as discipline. Not as charity, but as responsibility. His reflection that dharma precedes wealth, and that trust grows from honesty and transparency, resonated deeply with students navigating a world where success is often defined too narrowly. At Bṛhat, we remain committed to creating such spaces where enterprise is discussed alongside conscience, and leadership alongside character. Conversations like these remind us that institutions endure when they are built on values that people can live by, not just perform. Grateful to Daly College, the students, and Sh. Govind Dholakia ji for an exchange that was thoughtful, grounded, and formative. #EthicsInBusiness #DharmaAndEnterprise #ValuesBasedLeadership #EducationWithPurpose

On Ratan Tata’s birth anniversary, I remember not just an icon, but a gentle, deeply humane leader I was fortunate to know and work under. He taught us that leadership is not about power, but about conscience; not about profit alone, but about purpose. India is poorer without him, but infinitely richer because of him. 🙏 @RNTata2000 @TataCompanies #RatanTata #LeadershipWithPurpose #ValuesBasedLeadership #TataLegacy #Gratitude #NationBuilders

Paradox of Ethical Leadership. #ValuesBasedLeadership

#JMMMreflections Reflecting on a thought attributed to Plato, we see a poignant truth for our times: animals would never let the clumsiest member of the pack lead them. In contrast, humans often mistake leadership for noise, power for shouting, and authority for ego. True governance and leadership require: - Virtue: Recognizing that power is a means, not an end. - Wisdom: Looking beyond the next poll, election, or social media "like." - Service: Understanding that a leader is not above others but ahead for their benefit. This principle extends beyond politics; it applies to the boss you have, the team you lead, the family you support, and, most importantly, to the challenge of leading yourself. Perhaps the more pressing question today is not “Who governs us?” but “What kind of leader am I in my own small circle?” A society changes when it stops applauding those who shout the loudest and begins to follow those who serve the best. #ValuesBasedLeadership #CivicAwareness #LifeWithMeaning

🌿 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐲 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐌𝐲 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 🌿 Last Saturday, I sat in yet another powerful session of our 𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐖 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦, delivered by @CivsourceAfrica & @CivLegacy_F. This program has been calling me to be more self-aware,purpose-driven and grounded in my values. Last Saturday, our Module 2 was “𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝”, facilitated by @bnamutebi. What an interesting session it was! Lively, honest, sometimes uncomfortable (because that's one way of growth), but deeply revealing. Belinda began by asking us to think about the two levels of branding: 1️⃣ The person you are. 2️⃣ The person you want to become. She reminded us gently but firmly, “Don’t give up.” Because we’re living in times when virtues and consistency aren’t always celebrated, but staying true to your values is how your brand endures. That message stayed with me! Then came a truth that struck like lightning: 👉 “The power of a personal brand is to CONNECT.” It’s not just about being known; it’s about connecting with others in a way that builds trust and reputation. Because it’s our energy, attitude and how we show up for others that define how people experience us. Later that evening, as if the universe was confirming this lesson, a close friend called and said, “𝐑𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞, 𝐈’𝐦 𝐬𝐨 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞,𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐮𝐩, 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐬.” That simple conversation made me realize that feedback is part of building a brand. It reflects how others perceive our journey, growth, and consistency. Belinda also reminded us to think deeply about our functionality, emotional appeal and how we contribute beyond ourselves. 𝐃𝐨 𝐈 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐧? 𝐃𝐨 𝐈 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐲? 𝐃𝐨 𝐈 𝐚𝐝𝐝 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐲𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟? And her words still echo in my mind: “𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐝,𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰,𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐰 𝐮𝐩 𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐞.” A gentle reminder that not everyone has the same starting point and that awareness is part of our leadership and brand maturity. We closed with a question that made me smile and think all at once: “If I were a brand on a shelf, who would buy me, why, and how much would they pay?” This journey with GROW keeps feeding my curiosity, helping me uncover who I am, what I stand for, and how I show up in the spaces I occupy.
