Summary


***BUSINESS BOOK AWARDS 2022 SHORTLISTED TITLE***

An insider’s view of the challenges that big businesses face in the developing world: the opportunities, pitfalls, political and personal challenges involved.

Babs Omotowa has spent his life rejecting the status quo. His own career disproves the unthinking perception that Africans underperform in global businesses, and his insistence that issues such as community development, corruption, transparency and pollution belong on the corporate agenda alongside financial targets has helped big businesses to revolutionize their approach in the developing world.

The remarkable story of ‘Hurricane Babs’ – from storeroom keeper to global VP – showcases the issues that big businesses face in developing countries and reveals how multinational companies and leaders can best navigate these challenges: with integrity and courage.
