As Executive Chairman I am committed to driving transformative growth and delivering exceptional value for our customers. With over 25 years of experience in the office automation industry and three decades as a seasoned entrepreneur, I blend strategic leadership with a forward-looking approach to tackle challenges, create opportunities, and propel our company toward long-term success.

In 2010, I embarked on a pivotal journey by acquiring Gestetner Motswako and reimagining it as Motswako Office Solutions. This milestone marked the beginning of a mission to empower people, deliver sustainable solutions that address real-world customer needs, and foster a competitive edge that stands the test of time.

Every decision I make is deeply rooted in a passion for creating meaningful impact – whether in our business, for our clients, or within the lives of those we touch. I strive to cultivate a culture where purpose thrives, teams are empowered, and relationships are built on trust and mutual value.

At Motswako, we go beyond delivering products and services; we aim to solve significant challenges, exceed expectations, and help businesses and individuals reach their full potential. By staying adaptable and aligned with our vision, I am committed to leading our company into a future defined by resilience, growth, and shared success.

I am the Executive Director of Motswako Office Solutions, where I lead business development, board governance, and the implementation of strategic initiatives. With over 26 years of experience, I focus on business growth, innovation, and empowering marginalised groups, especially people with disabilities. My expertise covers governance, innovation development, ethics management, human resources, ICT, scientific research, plus diversity management, inclusion and mainstreaming.

I hold a BSc in Natural Sciences and Environmental Sciences from the University of Botswana and an MSc in Biometrics from Pennsylvania State University. These degrees are further accompanied by many years of development and training programs. My early career as a Biometrician-Research Officer and later as Director of the Office on the Status of Disabled Persons in the Presidency laid the foundation for my passion for disability mainstreaming and social justice. I have continued to advocate for inclusion and economic empowerment on the African continent and globally.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege to lead and chair various organisations, including Motswako Office Solutions, Taquanta Asset Managers Group, the ICT SMME Chamber, the Dempower Company, the Disability Economic Empowerment Trust, and the South African Development Trust for Disabled People. I also serve on boards, such as the Lanseria International Airport Group, the Technology Innovation Agency, Divuseni Women with Disabilities Empowerment, Lindandanda Consulting and the Sebenzile Matsebula Foundation.

I was honoured to be nominated to serve on the Committee of the United Nations Convention for Persons with Disabilities in 2012. In the same year, I was recognised as one of 12 outstanding women with disabilities in South Africa, winning the category for Research and Development. In 2014, I received further recognition for my achievements as an entrepreneur with a disability in the business sector.

With more than 20 years of experience in the office automation industry, I have built my career across sales, operations, business management and executive leadership. Since joining Motswako in 2013, I have played an integral role in the growth and evolution of the business, developing a deep understanding of our customers, our operations and the commercial drivers that underpin a successful organisation.
 
My experience across the business has shaped the way I lead. I am commercially driven, naturally inquisitive and believe strongly in understanding the detail behind the decisions we make. I challenge conventional thinking, value different perspectives and am always looking for better ways to operate, deliver and create value.
 
Motswako has evolved significantly in scale, national reach and capability, while retaining the entrepreneurial spirit and accessibility that have always defined us. I believe our strength lies in combining that agility with the capability of a national organisation - understanding our customers’ businesses, anticipating their needs and delivering solutions that create meaningful and sustainable value.
 
I am passionate about building a business where talented people have the opportunity to grow, where accountability and performance matter, and where our customers remain at the centre of the decisions we make.
I am incredibly proud of what Motswako has achieved, but even more excited about what lies ahead. We have the people, capability and ambition to continue raising the standard and building a business that our customers value, our people are proud to be part of and our partners respect.
