I love the fact that the network is all about helping people.
Stephan Weyers
You’re not trying to gain anything for yourself, but helping people is the way for other people to eventually start helping you.
And the network, collectively, what we have to share, the quality of the people involved, the quality of the businesses involved, the number of networking opportunities, and what that unlocks for other people in their lives and careers, it’s incredible.
It’s so amazing to network with people who are like-minded.
Andrew Fick
It’s been Lekker. We all want better for South Africa. The people that I’ve met and the advice that I’ve got from the Lekker network are next level.
One phone call, one WhatsApp message, and you get an answer from somebody who can help you. It’s just so nice to see helpful fellow South Africans all around the world wanting to help us local South Africans. That, to me, is amazing.
It spoke deeply about things that are very meaningful to me.
Leigh Stefanski
I love South Africa. I love our people and I love our nature and our spirit and what we are able to achieve when we get together. When (Nic) started talking about the Lekker Network, I just knew that we had to be part of it.
We were one of the founding members, and it has been absolutely remarkable to be part of this experience and see how the network is growing and flourishing and the opportunities that are emerging from it.
It’s a networking environment with a different type of spice.
Flip Van Der Merwe
It is not mundane. It’s alive and well, and there are a lot of deals going on back and forth. And everyone you meet, even if it’s just for a random discussion… you just feel better after such a discussion.
I believe in the Lekker Network’s mantra of “How can I help you?” That is South Africans. We are always there, and we always want to help other people. I want to be part of it, and I want to proudly bear the flag for South Africa.
