Dr Harold Mayaba

From a homeless orphan in Zambia to a PhD in Agribusiness, Dr. Harold Mayaba delivers a powerful message: Purpose isn't a mission statement—it's the ultimate strategy for resilient growth and predictable profit.

Today's agribusiness leaders face a perfect storm: volatile supply chains, intense pressure for sustainability, and a workforce battling burnout. The old models of profit-at-all-costs are failing. You need a new competitive advantage, one that inspires your people and strengthens your bottom line.

Dr. Harold Mayaba doesn't just understand this challenge from an academic perspective; he has lived the definition of resilience. His unforgettable journey from being a homeless teenager in Zambia to earning a PhD in Applied Economics is a testament to the power of purpose in overcoming impossible odds.

Blending his powerful personal story with his expertise as an economist, Harold delivers actionable frameworks that dismantle the false "purpose vs. profit" trade-off. He provides leaders with a concrete toolkit to build truly resilient, purpose-driven cultures that attract and retain top talent.

His sessions are not just motivational—they are transformational, equipping your team to lead with courage through uncertainty. The ROI is clear: a more engaged workforce, stronger brand loyalty in a crowded market, and a culture where profit becomes the echo of a purpose executed with discipline. Hire Harold to turn adversity into your organization's greatest advantage.
