I am MADIBA Olivier, 32 years old Cameroonian. I have a Bachelor Degree in Computer Science obtained at the University of Yaoundé 1. I launched 2 startups (MADIA and KIROO).

I am currently CEO / Game Designer / Scriptwriter / Programmer at Kiroo which is the first video game studio in Cameroon.

 

2. What are your main goals in life?

My goal is to reach my maximum human potential in this life and to help others to do the same. I recruit those who want to improve things and who love the trip more than the destination.

 

3. What tools and techniques do you use to accomplish things efficiently?

I use a lot of software like Word / Excel actually, I spend my time writing and doing simulations. I also like to use paper and my pen to constantly draw what I think, it makes understanding easier.

I would recommend going to www.kiroorebuntu.com, where I have compiled all my project management experience.

In terms of good reads, here are my favorite books:
- Warrior's Manual of Light

5. What is the best way to contact you?

The best thing is to tweet something on my Twitter @madibaOlivier. I can't reply to everyone, but I read everything.
