Profile:
Guest Speaker and State Capture Whisteblower, Bianca Goodson has been told that she is impatient. This is true. She has also been told that she has survived a lot. This is also true. With these two truths, she has decided to express herself on her terms and not to wait for other people nor entities to catch up. Since losing her career as a byproduct of becoming a whistle-blower for State Capture, she has spent much time trying to understand what has happened to her beautiful country through the process of State Capture.
It was whistleblowers and journalists that brought down the State Capture project and helped bring widespread corruption and malfeasance into the light. Through exposing wrongdoing and dodgy deals, these brave individuals were able to hold power to account, return billions of stolen rand to the fiscus and remove a political regime.
Yet despite their heroism, whistleblowers are considered problematic, pushed to the fringes of society and treated like impimpis and pariahs. Sadly South Africa does not have a culture of celebrating or rewarding whistleblowing. In 2020, journalist Mandy Wiener published The Whistleblowers to highlight these experiences. Shortly after the publication, Bianca Goodson, a former Trillian executive, wrote to the President urging him to protect whistleblowers as they are the strongest weapon against corruption. She has started a business, "Millennial Advisory" with the aim of reversing the damage caused by State Capture and corruption. She also has a blog in which she details her life's journey thus far.
