I was lucky enough to get the chance to listen to Capitec's Group CEO, Gerrie Fourie, talk about why he thinks they have been so successful.
This is what I took away.
1. Write down where you want to be in 10 years and regularly check to see how you are progressing against that vision
This makes a lot of sense.
It is something we should do at a personal level, at a company level, and at a country level.
But for most of us, the idea of visioning out over ten years (or more) is a pipedream.
We like the here and the now. Our survival instincts were not developed to plan decades ahead.
And in most companies and governments the incentives (bonuses and votes) are typically set to ensure results are delivered in years, sometimes months.
So a major advantage for Capitec is that their founder-led mindset has sustained with a view to the long-term.
