Sama operates across Kenya, Uganda, North America and beyond — but according to CEO Wendy Gonzalez, scaling globally isn’t about infrastructure first. It’s about people.

In this episode, we explore:

– Why financial independence beats traditional aid
– How East Africa became a digital-first AI talent hub
– The complexity of managing culture across continents
– Why repetition and clarity are leadership superpowers
– And why “meeting people where they are” is the real key to change

A candid conversation about mission, culture, AI adoption, and what it truly means to build a global company with purpose.
