Dudu Mofokeng

I am a futuristic leader with a passion for entrepreneurship development and a catalyst for change. I SHARE, INFLUENCE, & EMPOWER, using my entrepreneurial and professional experiences and expertise. I earned a reputation as a business mentor/coach by offering strategic advisory services, doing diagnostics, reviewing & overhauling operational roadmaps, and implementing strategic programs. As an Economist, I have a track record of supporting trade negotiations (Non-Agricultural Market Access [NAMA], Southern African Customs Union [SACU], and European Free Trade Association [EFTA]), leading market access projects, and FDIs.

I am an Entrepreneur, Educator, Business Coach, and mentor who is an IBASA Certified Principal Business Advisor*, ICF Certified Coach, and Economist by training, who turned into a multi-award-winning entrepreneur. I hold a PGD( Small Enterprise Consulting) and am a master’s candidate at Wits Business School(Management in Entrepreneurship &Venture Creation). I am also a certified UN-SEED trainer on Eco-Inclusive Enterprise Development.

My qualifications and experience in entrepreneurship set me apart as a business mentor, coach, SMME strategist, and partner for international entrepreneurship coaching & mentoring and assisting international organizations in rolling out their entrepreneurship programs. I have coached and mentored over 500 entrepreneurs nationally and internationally. I have been involved in enterprise development programs for institutions like TechnoServe, AngloZimele, AB4IR, Thinkroom, Micro Mentor, National Mentoring Movement & TUT.

I talk and walk entrepreneurship, as I have braved starting up her multi-award-winning business, Legaci Superior Dry Cleaners. With over 16 years in business and still counting, I am a preferred facilitator, business coach & mentor, improvement strategist, and educator.
In 2023, I served as a board member at IBASA, and my extensive overseas travels gave me an edge in my service offering.

My purpose is to teach, share, influence, and empower. I ran my business for over 16 years with all the successes and failures. It’s time for me to give back.
