ABOUT HOPE Consulting

At HOPE Consulting, we embody the principle of “Sawubona” – the most common greeting

in the Zulu tribe. It means, “We see you, you are important to me, and we value you.” It’s a way

to make the other person visible and to accept them as they are. In response to this greeting,

people usually say “Yebo Sawubona,” which means “We exist for you.” We believe, to belong,

one has to be seen. To be significant, one must contribute.
