The Worth in Motion journey
From Worth→To Skills→To Opportunity.
Career readiness from the inside out.
Know who you are. Build the skills to make your value visible. Use AI intentionally. Position yourself for opportunities that align with who you are.
Focused on youth ages 15 to 34.
Open to everyone.
The gap
You may be ready.But are youpositioned?
A qualification is not your entire professional identity. A CV tells part of your story. And knowing how to use AI is not the same as knowing how to communicate your value.
The labour market is under pressure and the skills required for work are changing quickly. Worth in Motion focuses on the part we can help people influence: knowing who you are, making your value visible, building relevant capability, and positioning yourself for the right opportunities.
Young people unemployed

Approximately 5.0 million South Africans aged 15 to 34 were unemployed in Q2 2026.
Core skills expected to change
39%
Employers expect 39% of workers’ core skills to change by 2030.
The gap is not only access.
It is also readiness, visibility and positioning.
That is the part of the journey Worth in Motion is built to work on.

Bring WiM to your organisationFounder Story
I learned skills before I knew they were called skills.
My career did not follow one straight line. I moved through fashion, modelling, media, recruitment, sales and entrepreneurship before working in growth and enablement across Africa’s technology sector. Along the way, technology and increasingly AI became a thread connecting those worlds: how people create, communicate, learn, sell, recruit, build and find opportunity. Each chapter taught me something different about people, trust, value and what helps potential become visible.
What I eventually understood is that skills alone are not enough. Identity gives your skills direction. Technology can amplify what you know, but positioning helps other people understand why it matters. Opportunity becomes more reachable when you can clearly show who you are, what you can do, how you think and where you can contribute. That is also how I approach AI: not as a replacement for the person, but as a tool that should strengthen judgement, voice and capability.
My passion has always been people. For me, the meaning I carry in my name, “little girl”, is a reminder to keep a childlike heart: curious, open, willing to learn and still able to imagine what could be possible.
I could name what I lacked more easily than I could name what I was worth.
Worth in Motion was built to help people recognise what is already within them, develop it, position it and put it in motion.

Signals / Insights
The signals are changing.People still matter.
Skills, technology and work are changing. The question is not only what AI can do. It is how people learn, adapt, use technology with intention and make their value visible in a changing world.
01
Digital capability is human capability too.
Technology matters, but so do communication, judgement, adaptability and the ability to work with others.
In the South African vacancy sample, 44.8% of postings referenced transversal digital skills such as communication tools, problem solving and digital workplace practices.
World Bank and Department of Higher Education and Training, 202602
Skills create more value when they work together.
Employers increasingly look for combinations of technical ability, practical experience and human capability.
The ILO describes job postings that pair digital skills with teamwork and cognitive abilities with practical experience.
International Labour Organization, 202603
AI exposure does not automatically mean job loss.
The impact of AI depends on the work being done, how technology is used and how people adapt around it.
The ILO cautions that AI exposure indicators alone do not predict job losses or other labour outcomes.
International Labour Organization, 202604
Access shapes opportunity.
The value people can gain from technology depends not only on the tools available, but also on access, skills and the ability to use them well.
An ILO and World Bank analysis across 135 countries notes that internet access gaps can limit potential productivity gains from generative AI.

That depends on the pathway you choose. The work can include clearer personal positioning, stronger career readiness, practical AI capability, a professional brand, digital presence, portfolio evidence, opportunity positioning and, where relevant, a professional website. The aim is not simply to give you more information. It is to help you apply what you know about yourself.
Yes. Worth in Motion works across education, community and professional environments. Engagements can include workshops, facilitated programmes, cohorts, keynotes and broader journeys that connect Worth, Skills and Opportunity. The format should be shaped around the people you are serving and what you want the engagement to achieve.
