Robin Bleekers
MBA Modular
From focusing on industrial psychology when he first studied, to now running the Letsema Foundation - Robin’s professional interactions are all coloured by his personal passions and focused on creating a lasting positive difference in other’s lives. Robin is fascinated by the role entrepreneurship can play in transforming society and the lessons business can teach us in seeking to solve society’s most intractable problems. He believes that a focus on people is a focus on sustainability.
Robin holds a Bachelor of Arts, Psychology and Law, from the University of the Witwatersrand as well as a Master of Arts, Psychology (Industrial), from the University of the Witwatersrand.
Prior to joining the Letsema Foundation, he worked as a management consultant where he worked hand in hand with clients to solve some of their greatest challenges.
For Robin, joining the Bertha Scholar community was an opportunity to reflect on his leadership journey, to grow as a social entrepreneur, diversify his skill set and be part of and contribute towards a network of changemakers. Robin hopes to expand his horizons and challenge his own paradigms to reimagine how he may achieve even greater impact in his work.
