The CA Connect Founder Series: Gareth Olivier’s Role in Shaping Online Accounting Education
Loading player...
In this fourth installment of the CA Connect Founder Series, we sit down with a Co-Founder of CA Connect and long-standing leader at Milpark Education, Gareth Olivier, to explore the thinking that sparked a new approach to accounting education.
From launching South Africa’s first online SAICA-endorsed CTA in 2009 to recognising how technology could expand access to high-quality learning, this conversation unpacks the early vision behind CA Connect.
We explore what self-leadership really looks like in practice, how strong teams are built by playing to individual strengths, and why clarity, perspective, and emotional intelligence are essential when solving complex problems. The conversation also turns to the rise of AI in the CA profession, unpacking how it can amplify thinking and decision-making when used intentionally, rather than replace the human judgement that matters most.
A must-listen for anyone interested in leadership, innovation, and the future of the CA profession.
