Prince Cedza Dlamini - Education and Employment

Education and Employment

Prince Cedza began working as a young man with MDA, his family's international business consulting firm in Johannesburg. It was while at MDA that he has said he was exposed to the many obstacles faced by emerging black entrepreneurs in the post-apartheid South Africa. He resolved to educate himself in marketing and return one day to expand resources and provide economic opportunities for Southern Africans.

Prince Cedza next worked for the Mitsubishi Corporation in South Africa. For several years there he was an assistant to the Official Development Assistance Manager, facilitating development programs between Japan and all 14 countries in the Southern African Development Community region. His duties involved despatching mobile clinics to poor and rural areas, and assistance in developing Mitsubishi's African affirmative action policy.

Cedza moved to the United States to study international relations in 2000.

Famous quotes containing the words education and, education and/or employment:

    “Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.”
    —H.G. (Herbert George)

    “Quintilian [educational writer in Rome around A.D. 100] thought that the earliest years of the child’s life were crucial. Education should start earlier than age seven, within the family. It should not be so hard as to give the child an aversion to learning. Rather, these early lessons would take the form of play—that embryonic notion of kindergarten.”
    —C. John Sommerville (20th century)

    “We may seem great in an employment below our worth, but we very often look little in one that is too big for us.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
