Shalom Govero’s book The Personal Finance Game Plan is a step-by-step guide to effective money management which simplifies complex topics in a dynamic Zimbabwean context.
Govero is a financial education trainer trained by the International Labour Organisation.
She boasts of over 1 000 participants who have engaged with her trainings in Zimbabwe and the region.
She is also a business entrepreneur running several family businesses.
Her narrative is not an ordinary one.
She attributes her exposure to personal finance to her mother who was very active in the microfinance space and had witnessed the transformative work she had done in assisting widows in the church and helping a lot of women in setting up their small business ventures. “My mother used to be very active in the microfinance space since the Zambuko days as well as Micro King.
She was one of the consultants who helped in setting up Micro King.
So, I always heard these finance conversations and growing up she would sometimes take me to business dinners so I would always hear these conversations regarding personal finance,” said Govero.
She admits that despite being good in accounting at A level, she had tried to run away from the finance field because of perceptions that it is a difficult mathematical related subject.
Coupled with the difficulties encountered in A level accounting, she decided to settle for a degree in Geography and Town Planning in the United Kingdom. 🔗 Read Full Article
