Meeting South Africa’s deputy President was inspiring

Me and Madam Deputy PresidentI had such a sense of awe at the power and dignity of the person who is second in charge of our beautiful and diverse country.

I’ve met business leaders, like Sir Richard Branson, and various music stars through my charity events… but strangely, I was never in such awe.

Perhaps that’s what I was supposed to feel…. She expects people to treat her with dignity and utmost respect. We teach people how to treat us.

Next time I meet her I’m going to suggest that she start blogging!
