I have more than a decade of experience working in the agricultural finance and agribusiness sectors. I've worked for Standard Bank as an Agricultural Advisor and for SA Canegrowers in Management roles (as an Agricultural Economist).In 2021, I left the Sugar industry and founded my own company called Geekay Agribusiness. This is a consulting company that offers a range of specialized services including assisting farm businesses to be well structured, become bankable, and access capital from financial institutions (for more info, visit www.geekay.co.za). Over the years, I have gained extensive experience in the following areas; business leadership, business strategy development, farm planning, financial modelling, data analytics, economic analysis, desktop farm valuations, biological asset valuations, quantification of crop damage claims (Insurance) etc. I've also gained lots of experience with people management & development through my management roles. I attribute my career growth & development to God. I endorse the approach of solving social problems with love and reciprocity being part of the foundation of the solutions. I'm passionate about leadership, training, coaching, financial literacy and business conflict resolutions. Emmanuel
