People and Platforms with Carlo
The People & Platforms Podcast is a bold Zimbabwean podcast that challenges traditional leadership models and explores what it truly means to lead with people, not over them. Each episode dives deep into real-life stories, African organisational culture, and the silent struggles of teams navigating power, trust, and change.
The podcast confronts leadership ego, unpacks toxic top-down habits, and celebrates the power of empowerment. Whether you’re a manager, aspiring leader, or team member seeking better work cultures, this podcast helps you rethink influence, authority, and what legacy really means.
This is leadership without ego. This is The People and Platforms Podcast.

Why Performance Management Fails Employees
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Performance management is supposed to drive growth, development, and accountability. But let’s be honest in most organisations, it has become compliance theatre.
In this episode of People & Platforms, Carlo-Marcel Dube unpacks why performance management often feels like a corporate game instead of a growth tool.
Key Insight: Performance without learning and development is a dead end.
This is a call-out to HR, managers, and leaders: stop treating performance management as paperwork. Redesign it to create real growth, or accept that you’re running a game no one believes in.
