What are Black Sheep? Black sheep are individuals with daring ambition and a persistent will to succeed. These individuals are calculated risk-takers that look beyond circumstance to find opportunity. For them starting a business, a division or even expanding their horizons are activities best poised for recessionary times. They see opportunity & prosperity where others see contraction. They are daring when others “bearish”. They are black sheep! Vusi has travelled the globe researching this talk, meeting with some of the most influential young lives from Africa.

	Talk 3: Bhampa in the boardroom You’ve heard of Generational theory. Generation Y expert and top Motivational speaker and keynote speaker Vusi Thembekwayo looks at generation Y theory in the context of South Africa’s current economic landscape. The main focus of this talk is the Y generation: said the most progressive and smartest generation yet, this gadget crazed generation has a propensity for knowledge and learning-to-application curve never before experienced in human history. Compound this with the “newly affluent community” effect and you begin to understand why companies and government departments alike struggle not to attract but rather to retain highly skilled people within their organizations. Bhampa in the boardroom is a deeply informative yet hilarious study of this generation and gives executives tools to not only understand but also manage this generation. It’s about ensuring that your business is “previously disadvantaged Gen Y” friendly there’s a new term for the government: understands their thinking, success-imperatives and most importantly how to maximize their fresh perspective and innovation input to your business or department. Target audience: Company and Government executives. Generation Y staff: - to better understand their abilities and restraints.
