JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon gave 15 years to Citigroup and got fired - he called his wife first so the kids would be ready: "the youngest one said - Dad, do we have to sleep on the streets?"
this is him explaining the phone call he made to that boss a year later, the mistake he admits was his own, and the day his own hires walked in and told him to give up his pay too
"my net worth was not my self worth. I had to remind myself of that"
"I called him a year later. I was wrong for Citigroup at that point. I acknowledged my own mistakes"

AI is not a product you buy. It’s a capability you build through data, architecture, and collaboration. And those who recognise this early will be the ones who move beyond hype and start realising tangible value.

Word!
There are moments in life when everything changes overnight.
No warning. No time to prepare. Just a new reality staring you in the face.
I found myself in that place.
And in that moment, I had two choices:
Go back to what felt safe… or trust what I had in my hands.
A lot of people told me to return to banking. It made sense. It was stable. Predictable. Respectable. Some laughed at my situation 🥹
But deep down, I knew I had something else. A skill. A gift. A craft. It didn’t look like much at the time. It wasn’t polished. It wasn’t perfect. But it was mine.
So I humbled myself.
I started where I was, with what I had.
No big plan. No guarantees. Just consistency, faith, and the willingness to keep going even when it didn’t make sense to others or to myself.
And that decision?
It carried us through.
Not overnight success. Not instant results. But step by step, stitch by stitch… it became something.
Sometimes the biggest shift in your life doesn’t come from chasing what looks good on paper, but from honoring what’s already in your hands.
Start where you are.
Use what you have.
Trust your process.
Even when no one else understands it.

When it’s your season in the sun, don’t forget how cold the shade can be for others.
Because one day, when the light shifts, people will remember how warm,or how cruel,you were when you didn’t have to be.
Empathy doesn’t come on credit. You earn it.

Last year, @ISACANews launched the Workforce Inclusion Programme in collaboration with the National University of Science and Technology (@nustzim), generously supported by the @USEmbZim, @NMBBankZim , and other partners. The initiative was incredibly successful — with around 40 students graduating, equipped with globally recognized ISACA certifications in Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, Blockchain, among others.
I'm honored to have championed this transformative partnership, which is helping shape a future-ready generation of tech professionals.
👏 Special congratulations to Kudzai Zhuwaki and Dexter Sigauke, whose Ypotera AI project took first prize at the POTRAZ Innovation EXPO in August!
As @HarareIsaca , we are actively seeking partners who can provide financial support and on-the-job training opportunities to help us scale this life-changing work.

“We’ve been telling kids for 15 years to learn to code. Well, AI is coming for the coders."
"It’s not coming for welders, plumbers, steamfitters or pipefitters,electricians,HVAC
"I listened to Larry Fink say we need 500,000 electricians." -Mike Rowe.
Ama2K, I’m back again. And no, I will not relent ,regardless of your unsavoury comments. I’m your Elder, and I will keep speaking.
Let me say this LOUDLY, one more time:
CONSIDER THE APPRENTICESHIP ROUTE.
This obsession with going to university just for the sake of it is destroying your future. You spend years chasing degrees like political science, sociology, or law ,only to end up jobless, broke, and selling tomatoes at the corner of Samora and Julius Nyerere. What’s the point? You’re wasting your parents’ money and your own time.
Yes, some degrees still have value ,medicine, engineering, computer science ,but let’s be honest, those opportunities are shrinking too. Even here in the UK, degrees in philosophy, archaeology, and law no longer guarantee anything.
Tradesmen are in demand. If you have a trade, you can work anywhere. You don’t need to have a degree to be successful.
Did you hear that, Ama2K? Tradesmen are in demand.
But I already know ,if it was some fake influencer using foul language, you’d be watching it on loop and sharing it like gospel. You youngsters are getting too playful with your futures.
And don’t tell me "there are no apprenticeships in Zim." Here's what you can do:
Go to Poly. Learn the theory. Then knock on doors ,any workshop, mine, plant, or construction site still running.
Offer your service. Even for a small stipend. Prove yourself.
Back in our day, the government helped by subsidising apprentices' salaries ,paying 50% to encourage companies to take us on. Now,you’re on your own. But don’t let that stop you. Because with a trade,the world is your oyster.
@mpslswzim @SkillsAuditDvt @ProfPMavima
By the way,@ProfPMavima ,any progress on the issue raised by many tradesmen who are facing long delays as per this quoted text :
“I am currently doing ND as part time student at Harare Polytechnic.
Can you please assist me in acquiring Class 1 journeyman card ,I have already did the practice and I registered for class 1 practical at the Ministry of Public works in Harare but every time I'm being told that there is still backlog for 2022 students due to Covid 19. Please advise,Prof .
