Africa is called capital-starved. That is half true.
Much of the money the continent hunts for sits inside its own companies. Locked in stock. Stuck in unpaid invoices. Drained by spending nobody gates.
It does not need raising. It needs releasing.

Dear Hiring Managers,
As you hire new employees, remember to look beyond the obsession with academic qualifications—especially the common clause stating that "a master’s degree is an added advantage." Similarly, reconsider the emphasis on excessive years of experience.
Instead, focus on job knowledge, cognitive ability, and personality. Personality matters even more for those taking up leadership roles. The best candidates aren’t always the ones with the highest degrees or the longest experience but those who can deliver real impact.
