Zimbabwe: Voting for a Better Future

Business Daily

Available for over a year

As Zimbabwe heads to the polls, could the country's ravaged economy be heading towards better times? Ten years of hyperinflation, empty shop shelves and now the highest unemployment rate in the world has created an unfavourable climate for foreign investment. We examine what daily economic life is like and what needs to change to give economic recovery a chance. Plus, what do the CEO of Yahoo Marissa Mayer, President Obama and the fashion designer Tom Ford have in common? The answer is they all survive on only a few hours sleep. But making a case for a good night's sleep, Lucy Kellaway argues there is nothing macho or cool about arriving at work having not had enough shut-eye.
