“I don’t need to know how to cook a chicken to own a KFC franchise.” — Cat Matlala.
Ekse this line hit me hard. He was asked how he won a R300 million tender without the technical experience… and his answer explains exactly how high-level success in business actually works.
Entlek most of us we block our own opportunities because we think we must personally know everything before we start. But the real game is understanding leadership, combining the right team, managing resources, and thinking at a higher level.
