Our most popular 2024 posts

Regular readers of the site know that we (Jon Cherry and Marius Du Toit) write and post a lot of articles, ideas, opinions, rants throughout the year.

Some of these pieces are posted here - other longer essays make it onto Daily Maverick and here and there we share our perspectives on CapeTalk, 702, SABC News, Newsroom Afrika, Moneyweb.

Capturing insights to better inform our approach to strategy is a part of the service that we offer to clients. In that regard we've also started a monthly horizon scanning briefing that forms an important part of our strategy practice. It's designed to facilitate broad strategic and systems thinking for executive teams and train an enquiring mindset that is so vital for modern business.
