Buyani Zwane is the Founder and Cheerful Engagement Orchestrator of #BreakthroughDevelopment, a management #consulting firm providing managerial and #leadership development services.
It is an honour to share Buyani, a fellow child of the Black Management Forum (#BMF) on this June, his birthday month with you. Having known him for about 24 years, this conversation exposes a rare side of Buyani. Vulnerable and emotionally raw because of childhood trauma. An apt conversation to have during Youth Month (June) in South Africa as we commemorate and reflect on the sacrifices of the young people on the 16th of June 1976 in the liberation struggle journey of #SouthAfrica,
As a leadership expert, Buyani understands that an amygdala hijack is painful to behold. The #WillSmith slapping #ChrisRock incident and the screaming from his seat, was an excruciating, reflective moment that there are no shortcuts to becoming an emotionally, mentally healthy and a self-actualised human being. Working in the leadership space, he shares #wisdom that can assist leaders to introspect and to be aware of how their past is holding the present hostage and sometimes resulting in unhealthy cultures in the workplaces they lead. Or even in the political arena. Amongst other nuggets of wisdom.
Most of all, it is a beautiful conversation of a Man finding his way in the world of #fatherhood where he did not have the privilege to experience the same having lost his father, tragically and unexpectedly, when he was very young,
