Tobi Dayo-Olupona is a guest whom words cannot describe. He is a polymath, entrepreneur, leader, and brilliant engineer, among other pursuits. Tobi is currently a PhD candidate at the University of Witwatersrand along with being the Director of Afrmine but has a unexpected path into mineral resources.

Even though most of our conversation is about mining, the lessons and meaning of what we discuss is not unique to mining and is applicable for any young professional seeking to make a positive impact on our world. For example, Tobi describes how, in high school, he was leading 5+ organizations and learned that he needed to delegate, a lesson that extends far beyond mining.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my conversation with Tobi Dayo-Olupona, I hope our conversation is inspiring and useful.
