Africa is the perfect place to do well and to do good. Think about it. It’s an underestimated continent with 54 countries, 1.4 billion people, a treasure chest of investment opportunities and a market valued at more than $3.1 trillion US and an estimated $430 million empty bellies. There is a tremendous opportunity for agriculture corporations to seize this challenge and win both in terms of financial success and social impact. Amandla Ooko-Ombaka fleshes this out in this conversation with Anne Pratt. Amandla is a Senior McKinsey Associate Partner and a member of the Leadership Council for Harvard University Center of African Studies. In this episode, she talks about the untapped opportunity to reach the last mile and help the poorest of the poor in Africa’s rural communities achieve food security. She shares how she helped a multinational agricultural company break into Africa's billionaire club and how she asserted her own moral courage within McKinsey to redefine the operating system of the company. Plus, she shares her Mandela Moment, a moment in a cold Boston winter when she had her own Nelson Mandela Mini Long Walk to Freedom. Tune in for all of these and more!
