Welcome to YMPlaces — Start Here

Welcome! I’m **Yemi Mateola**, a cross‑industry IT strategist turned content curator. After three decades leading digital transformation from Lagos to London to Disney’s boardrooms, I built *YMPlaces* to share distilled habits, frameworks, and cultural insights that power sustainable, people‑centred growth.

**What to expect each week**

• Micro‑essays that sharpen a *future‑focused* mindset
• Lessons from building inclusive, cross‑cultural teams
• Leadership playbooks that blend technology with human nuance

**Why trust me?**

My work spans Fortune 100 enterprises, healthcare startups, and non‑profit initiatives such as *Tech for Africa*. I’ve walked the executive halls—and the village footpaths—where these ideas are stress‑tested.
