Persian Proverb: A blind person who sees is better than a seeing person who is blind. (It is better to have vision (purpose, direction and motivation), than just physical sight)
LEARN, WORK, PLAY, FOR THE MIND, BODY, SOUL!
Perhaps you are wondering “Why ekosystem instead of ecosystem?” or “What’s the seeming obsession with spelling every available word with “ko”… What does it mean?”
I am glad you ask! Here is late Founder & CEO Khotso Khabele’s answer: “Ko means “learn” and “build” in Yoruba and expresses who we are as a community that embraces learning, working and playing together.”
He wanted “ko” to be infused in our lexicon: a constant reminder to strive for Koherence (Group Flow) and enjoy the process together.
Speaking of which: our ekosystem embraces diversity of philosophies, ideas and thoughts that nurture discovering the true roots of problems and solving them together.
