BNC#6: Entrepreneurial giant Christo Wiese urges perspective, rationality

In his keynote address to the BizNews Conference, leading South African entrepreneur Christo Wiese drew on the famous statement made almost a century back by then Prime Minister Jan Smuts who described SA as a country where things are never as good as they should be, but never as bad as they could be. In this inspirational address, the man who built Shoprite and Pep into massive corporations offers perspective on where SA sits in a troubled world, concluding that the depressing narrative is overblown.
