Bakgatla-Ba-Kgafela Strategic investment Company Reviews

 

I am a 30 years old lady with extensive experience in administration

I have good skills in Microsoft word, Excel, Access, powerpoint and email. My previous experience as an Executive Assistant working for two Portfolio Executives taught me to be punctual, patient and accurate. I have acquired a skill in Telephone and Reception from Siyaqoba FET College and being the initiative person I am, I managed to get a promotion from reception to being an executive Assistant within a year. I have a good working relationship with my co-workers as we can start a project together and finish it successfully. I enjoy mostly working with the farmers and after they have harvested a huge quantity, it makes me very happy. The challenging aspect is when they have to pay their lease and do not make it in time as I have a deadline to submit a report to my senior.

Pros: The company has a goog potential for growth but do not use it
Cons: No room for growth in terms of career

My work has brought a passion for agriculture in me

Working as an executive assistant for a portfolio Executive of Agriculture have brought passion of agriculture in me. Working with different projects has been an interesting and challenging job for me as I get to face different people and interact with farmers, funders and other institutions. Have enjoyed trainings as I have learned a lot of things that I did not know and my manager has been empowering me more than I can think was possible. The tasks given and the pressure left me with time management skill, problem solving, multitasking and being creative.

Pros: enough time to learn and futher my studies
Cons: No opportunity for growth

I work as an Executive Assistant of the two Porfolio Execitives

I get to work at other departments which provides me with exposure and other experience. I cooperate well with my co workers as I have planned most events and made an achievement out of it. I have learned to respect people and time, solve problems and being creative. I enjoyed tasks that keep me on my toes, like getting a grant for the Agro processing incubator, the launch of it and mostly bi enjoyed working with the manager (Porfolio Executive of agriculture) the woman who instilled nature in me. The most challenging aspect is the time for harvest when I get to call farmers demanding their 10% of their profit as per their lease agreement.

Pros: Not challenging anymore
Cons: Have learned a lot
