Sibusiso’s presentation is extremely inspiring. It is the most incredible story of his journey. All aspects were so interesting and obviously worked well when trying to get across the importance of team work – each person’s role in the expedition is so important. We at Sasfin Wealth really enjoyed the presentation and would definitely recommend Sibusiso to others.
