HOW OUR STORY BEGAN

Dr. Joy Ntetha 

Founder

OUR TRIBE OF HEALERS

Our story is inspired by our founder’s own wake up call and healing journey. Founded in 2021, The Nomalanga Tribe embraces a holistic approach to nurturing the well-being of leaders — from their mental, social, and emotional lives, and all the way through to their physical, spiritual, and environmental aspects that help them lead well for today’s dynamically transforming world. Our founder, Dr. Joy Ntetha is an award-winning psychologist who works with leaders and multinationals around the world. She leads the tribe with a powerful vision for leaders in Africa, scientific rigour in our solutions, and a humanness that informs our approach to leader development – to appreciate the leader as a whole human.  

A thriving workforce starts with well- being as the fuel for your leaders to succeed in leading their families, teams, and their organisations.
