About me

My name is Rudzani Mulaudzi. The ‘about me’ section is always the hardest part for me to complete, but this my best shot. I was born Limpopo, Venda in Siloam Hospital and from as young as I can remember I have always wanted to improve the lives of other people. However, the instrument to accomplish this task keeps changing. Right now, I am very drawn to technology-enabled innovations as a mechanism to improve society. The more I learn about fields outside of technology more I am convinced technology is just one part of a bigger story. So as such, this is literally the best about me I can do:

I am ______ (loading). The only constant about me is that I am a child of God, a husband of one wife by delightful choice and a father of 2 :). The key question I want to answer is
How do we better use technology and business to profitably improve South Africa and the world?

I am an experienced Strategist and Innovation Professional with over 10 years of experience in Information and Communication Technology, Financial Services, Resources, and Government industries. Excellent reputation for resolving problems, improving customer satisfaction, and driving overall operational improvements. Strengths in Technology (AI, Blockchain, and other emerging technologies), Strategy (Business, Digital and Technology), Design Thinking, Agile Processes, and Operating Model Design & Implementation. I have degrees in Information Systems, Mathematics & Computer Science and Human Centered Innovation.
