“I nearly got fired from my first job in corporate America.”
That’s how Bayo Adedeji, CEO of Wakanow.com, nightlife entrepreneur, and former Amazon senior leader, opens this candid conversation about ambition, identity, and redefining success as an African immigrant.
In this episode of Zero Generation, Bayo reflects on navigating high-pressure corporate America, the loneliness and invisibility that can accompany professional success abroad, and the pivotal decision to return to Nigeria. He shares how he rebuilt his career back home, rose to lead one of Africa’s largest travel companies, and learned what it truly means to take up space — and then choose your own definition of winning.
A powerful conversation about pressure, return, and purpose.
