- Thanks Jo - problem here is that access to internet is fairly limited - only 5m of 45m people in South Africa use the medium. Bring on broadband

To join you need to follow the group tap and the + top right.
I think helping people see their own future so they can see where they fit into SA might help. You should be able to hire plenty of Zimbo's!
Cheers for now

Into the slump!
Well done David ! What a great start to a sweeping project. I think an engagement approach to the lucky ones left in office to help them better manage the loss of colleagues in the down turn could be a good direction for this year.

Appreciate the question--but what if you consider that there is more than one type of "true" engagement, and that different types of engagement may involve more or less spiritual, intellectual or participatory involvement?

I appreciated the statement: "an invisible grandfather clause." Staying power and growth not just sticking around because of the pension. Well said.

Finding a candidate with some staying power is such an awesome thing. There are a lot of candidates out there who are willing to stick with a good employer, and there are others who are just looking to build their resume.
Though you may find candid…
