Outlier #1 - Mteto Nyati’s path from rural obscurity to Altron’s 6x wealth creator

In this new series on South Africans who have massively outperformed, mechanical engineer Mteto Nyati explains how his family’s obsession with education put him onto a road to becoming an Outlier. It’s a story of discipline and dedication, faith and application - and an appreciation that fancy plans are worth nothing without execution. He spoke to Alec Hogg of BizNews.

Great interview. The most notable thing about successful people is that they know how to communicate clearly. They know how to verbalize their thought, something I am struggling with.

Excellent interview. A lot to learn from Nteto Nyati.

So he comes from the bureaucratic/ middle class of the then "Bantustans". I do wish we steered clear of creating "narratives"..."from the black/ poor rural" to "prosperity". Prof Ivor Chipkin writes eloquently about the influence of the Bantustan bureaucratic class on the current messy politics.
