CEO Raubex Group: Felicia Msiza – Leading with Integrity

This week on <a href="https://womanity.africa/">Womanity</a>,<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-amaleya-goneos-malka-1282ba57/"> Dr Amaleya Goneos-Malka</a> speaks with <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/felicia-msiza-63176a30b/">Felicia Msiza</a>, CEO of the <a href="https://raubex.com/">Raubex Group</a>, a JSE-listed company, to explore aspects of her leadership journey, the impact of infrastructure development on communities, and her passion for empowering future generations. From Governance Expert to CEO Ms Msiza reflects on her journey from serving as a non-executive director on the <a href="https://raubex.com/team/">Raubex board</a> in 2011 to becoming CEO in 2022. She shares how years of experience in governance, risk management, auditing, and executive leadership equipped her to transition from oversight into operational leadership. For Ms Msiza, leadership is about more than strategy and performance; it is about setting direction, inspiring confidence, and bringing people along on the journey. She discusses how experiences across both the public and private sectors taught her the importance of accountability, adaptability, and making decisions under pressure. Integrity: The Foundation of Leadership A recurring theme throughout the conversation is integrity. Ms Msiza explains that true leadership requires doing the right thing, even when no one is watching; the truth always holds. Drawing from her experience in both government and corporate environments, she argues that integrity is essential to rebuilding trust, strengthening institutions, and driving sustainable progress. She also highlights the importance of servant leadership, emphasising that leaders exist to serve employees, stakeholders, communities, and society. Staying True to Yourself as a Leader Ms Msiza shares her personal leadership philosophy: remain authentic and grounded in your values. She speaks candidly about the pressures of entering environments, where you may feel compelled to conform to existing cultures and expectations. Her message is clear, women do not need to sacrifice who they are to succeed. Instead, they should lead with confidence, create clarity, empower teams, and remain true to their own identities. The Power of Infrastructure Ms Msiza paints a compelling picture of infrastructure as a catalyst for economic growth and social transformation. She discusses opportunities in roads, rail, water, logistics, energy, and public-private partnerships across Southern Africa. She also highlights landmark projects that <a href="https://www.instagram.com/raubex_group_ltd">Raubex</a> has developed, including the <a href="https://raubex.com/project/senqu-bridge-project-at-mokhotlong-kingdom-of-lesotho/">Senqu Bridge</a> in Lesotho and the <a href="https://raubex.com/project/beitbridge-border-post/">Beitbridge Border Post</a> development on the Zimbabwe side, illustrating how infrastructure improves trade, reduces inefficiencies, creates jobs, and strengthens economies. For example, the Beitbridge Border Post has reduced processing trucks from days to within four hours. Her vision for Raubex is to continue building a resilient, diversified, and high-performing infrastructure group that delivers lasting value across the continent. Creating Opportunities for Young People Youth development is a subject close to Ms Msiza’s heart. She explains how the infrastructure sector serves as a powerful job creator and economic multiplier. Through initiatives such as the Raubex Academy, bursary programmes, mentorship opportunities, and subcontractor development, the company is actively creating pathways for young people to enter the workforce and build sustainable careers. In a country where youth unemployment <a href="https://www.statssa.gov.za/?p=19526">sits at 60.9% for 15-24 year olds and 40.6% for 25-34 year olds</a>, these initiatives are critical to South Africa’s economy and its people’s livelihoods. Ms Msiza’s believes that addressing youth unemployment requires collaboration between industry, government, and educational institutions, with infrastructure investment playing a central role. Encouraging More Women into Construction As a female CEO in a traditionally male-dominated sector, Ms Msizais passionate about attracting more women into engineering, construction, and infrastructure careers. She challenges young women to pursue mathematics, science, engineering, and technical disciplines, stressing that construction is no longer a space reserved for men. With evolving workplace policies and increasing opportunities, she believes women can thrive, lead, and make a meaningful impact in the sector. Her message is simple: “We need more women in these spaces.” Education as a Pathway to Empowerment Ms Msiza credits education as one of the most important foundations of her success. From her undergraduate studies to postgraduate qualifications and a master’s degree, education provided her with knowledge, confidence, and a platform to build her career. She encourages young people to invest in learning, pursue excellence, and combine academic achievement with practical experience. She remarks that education opens doors and gives individuals a voice and the ability to shape their futures. The Women Who Shaped Her When reflecting on the women who influenced her life, Ms Msiza pays tribute to her late grandmother and her mother. She describes her grandmother as a community leader who demonstrated that leadership is about service rather than titles. Her mother modelled hard work, resilience, and the ability to balance career, family, and community responsibilities. Together, these women instilled in her a commitment to purpose, dignity, service, and leaving a positive legacy wherever she goes. Your Opportunity Opens the Door Wide for Others In her closing message, Ms Msiza encourages girls and young women to reject limitations placed upon them by others. She reminds listeners that being the first woman in a space does not mean they do not belong; it means they have an opportunity to create pathways for those who follow. Through courage, preparation, continuous learning, and a commitment to excellence, women can transform industries, communities, and nations. “Africa needs women’s voices, leadership, courage, and excellence. Lead with purpose, hold on to your values, and never underestimate the power of a woman who knows who she is and is willing to work for the future she believes in.” Felicia Msiza Tune in for more

Professor Sharlene Khan – School of the Arts – WITS University – Use Your Gifts

This week on <a href="https://womanity.africa/">Womanity</a>,<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-amaleya-goneos-malka-1282ba57/"> Dr Amaleya Goneos-Malka</a> speaks with <a href="https://sharlenekhan.co.za/">Prof. Sharlene Khan</a>, an acclaimed South African visual artist, writer, researcher and Associate Professor from the <a href="https://www.wits.ac.za/wsoa/">Wits School of the Arts</a> at the <a href="https://www.wits.ac.za/">University of the Witwatersrand</a>. Through a deeply personal and inspiring conversation, <a href="https://www.wits.ac.za/people/academic-a-z-listing/k/sharlenekhanwitsacza/">Prof. Khan</a> shares how creativity, storytelling and critical thinking have shaped her journey from a childhood marked by hardship to becoming a respected artist, academic and advocate for African feminisms. Finding Freedom Through Creativity <a href="https://hi.psu.edu/scholars/sharlene-khan/">Prof. Khan</a> reflects on growing up in Durban in a money-scarce home marked by violence, where art, books and imagination became powerful tools for survival and self-expression. She recounts how drawing, storytelling and literature offered an escape from difficult circumstances, giving her a vehicle to express retribution against perpetrators. What emerged was not only a passion for creativity, but a lifelong commitment to understanding the world through art and using that understanding to challenge inequality, gender-based violence and injustice. Art That Tells the Stories We Often Overlook Much of <a href="https://herri.org.za/7/sharlene-khan/">Prof. Khan’s</a> artistic work focuses on identity, race, gender, class and belonging in post-apartheid South Africa. Rather than creating decorative art, she uses her practice to explore complex social realities and amplify stories that are often overlooked. Drawing from her own family history, she discusses how themes of poverty, informal trade, migration, resilience and gender-based violence have informed her work. Her art shines a light on the dignity, courage and humanity of ordinary people whose experiences are rarely represented in mainstream narratives. Honouring Women’s Voices Across Generations One of the most moving aspects of the conversation centres on the stories of Prof. Khan’s mother (Devi Khan) and grandmother. Through artworks inspired by family memories, letters and archival materials, she has created powerful tributes to women whose lives were shaped by hardship, cruelty, resilience and determination (Watch <a href="https://sharlenekhan.co.za/when-the-moon-waxes-2009-2022/">“When the Moon Waxes…”</a>) These authentic, deeply personal narratives become universal stories, revealing how the intersections of gender, race, class and history continue to shape the lives of women today. In sharing these experiences, <a href="https://curatingculture.blog/2019/12/13/sharlene-khan/">Prof. Khan</a> demonstrates the transformative power of storytelling as both remembrance and resistance. When Art Creates Human Connection <a href="https://artonourmind.org.za/sharlene-khan/">Prof. Khan</a> shares remarkable experiences of exhibiting her work internationally, describing how audiences from vastly different cultural backgrounds have connected emotionally with her stories. Whether in galleries, museums, conferences or biennales, her work has inspired people to reflect on their own experiences and engage in conversations about identity, trauma, healing and belonging. In her opinion, the value of art lies not in commercial success, but in its ability to create empathy, foster dialogue and remind us of our shared humanity. Why the Humanities Matter More Than Ever In an era increasingly dominated by technology, artificial intelligence and STEM disciplines, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sharlene-khan-8a297756/">Prof. Khan</a> makes a compelling case for the continued importance of the humanities. She argues that the humanities cultivate critical thinking, imagination and empathy; skills that are essential for understanding ourselves and others. Through literature, art, history and cultural studies, we learn to question assumptions, appreciate diverse perspectives and imagine alternative futures. She spotlights how the humanities challenge the status quo and help societies grapple with complex ethical, social and political issues. Opportunities and Challenges in the Arts The discussion also explores the realities of pursuing a career in the arts.<a href="https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=XlcgQFkAAAAJ&hl=en"> Prof. Khan</a> speaks candidly about the challenges artists face in South Africa, including limited funding, a contracting arts market and the difficulties of sustaining a creative career. At the same time, she highlights the diverse opportunities available to arts graduates. The skills developed through artistic training, such as creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving, communication and empathy, are valuable across a wide range of professions, from education and research to media, culture, business and beyond. A Message of Hope for Women and Girls As the interview draws to a close, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sharlenefkhan/">Prof. Khan</a> offers a heartfelt message to women and girls across Africa. Acknowledging the difficulties many face, she encourages listeners to trust their journeys, embrace uncertainty and remain open to life’s unexpected possibilities. Her powerful reminder is that while life can be challenging, it is also filled with opportunities for growth, connection and transformation. By believing in their abilities and continuing to move forward, women can create meaningful lives and contribute to positive change in their communities and beyond. Tune in for more…
