This morning, I had the pleasure of hosting officials from @jica_direct_en in my office. We engaged in a fruitful conversation about their efforts to enhance and develop Uganda's ICT industry sector.

Our brother and fellow worker in the Kingdom, @timgkay, joined us last night during the Bootcamp session to deliver a very powerful reminder in our devotional.

He urged our entrepreneurs to be missional about business—building a Kingdom focused business.

Look who turned up during our last night’s Bootcamp session! Jason MacGregor!!!

Joining us all the way from Waco, TX, Jason encouraged our entrepreneurs to be critical thinkers NOT critically spirited. That’s how to lead effectively.

Netflix CEO @reedhastings : "When you optimize for efficiency, you don't have much flexibility. And for a creative business that is going to change a lot, it's better to focus on flexibility and tolerate less efficiency. Kind of ... managing on the edge of chaos."
