Thursday, 10 September, 2026

Can human beings and organisations transform fast enough to keep pace with exponential technology?In this episode of Exponential Africa, Mic Mann sits down with Kyle Hermans, CEO of Oxford Leadership, co-founder of Be Courageous and Singularity expert, to explore why courage may become one of the most important human capabilities of the AI age.Kyle has worked with leaders across hundreds of Fortune 1000 organisations and more than 80 countries, helping companies navigate innovation, culture change and transformation. Today, he leads Oxford Leadership as it enters a new chapter focused on helping leaders simultaneously perform today and transform for tomorrow.Mic and Kyle explore AI and the future of leadership, why transformation fails, whether organisations can keep pace with exponential change, the relationship between courage and creativity, purpose in an age of intelligent machines, human-AI leadership, and what Africa can bring to the next era of global leadership.The future won't wait. The question is whether we have the courage to transform with it.
