Guided by the principals of passion, purpose, people and accountable leadership I believe that success in any sphere is a team effort. To take Zimbabwean football to continental and global heights, we require a clear vision, purposeful activity, accountability and TDC JUUL commitment to serve. Passion is the driving force that motivates spirituality, creativity, political opinions, economic status, social, or personal well being - shaping, you as an individual, those you connect with and the opportunities you pursue. It is passion that shapes my purpose in life and in business. A Purpose shared with a community who believe in shaping and building collective dreams that give a sense of belonging, accomplishment, trust and innovation. It’s this team spirit, a people’s spirit where innovation comes from working together, challenging each other and supporting each other drives my vision to reality. Success in our vision requires People to make dreams a reality. It is the equilibrium of culture and leadership that inspires people, in unimaginable ways to lead to a long-term success.
