My woman ordered food one evening and it arrived cold. She wasn’t even angry. She just said “It’s okay.”
That “it’s okay” stayed with me.
The next day I called the restaurant pretending I wanted to invest in their delivery operations. One conversation became three meetings. Three meetings became paperwork. Anyway, I now own 30% of the restaurant. First thing I changed was dispatch. No food leaves the kitchen until the rider is downstairs, every delivery bag is heated and her address is marked internally as “priority.”
She ordered again last week and said “Oh, they’ve improved.” I said “Yeah, maybe they listened to customer feedback.” There are some things your woman doesn’t need to know. Always move in silence 🤝
32 years ago today, I returned to the University of Ghana after my PhD at the University of Cambridge — choosing Ghana over a postdoc at Cornell University.
By God’s grace, together we have:
• Trained 133 PhDs
• Released 413 improved varieties
• Reached 3M+ farmers in 14 countries
• Mobilized $160M+ in grants
The West Africa Centre for Crop Improvement remains strong. To God be the Glory.
