Bronwyn Williams & Bruce Whitfield | The Small Print
South Africa and its fraught political economy provide a fascinating case study into how it takes a particular brand of genius to thrive in a difficult domestic environment and to take those ideas and the businesses that deliver them global. In this episode, Bronwyn speaks to journalist Bruce Whitfield about his latest book, Genius: How to Take Smart Ideas Global. They discuss the need for optimism in a world full of challenges and opportunities, how greatness comes from acting on a purpose, and how a generation of South Africans is solving problems and adding value across the globe.

When she's not talking to brands and businesses about the future, you will probably find her curled up somewhere with a (preferably paperback) book. She tweets at @bronwynwilliams.
