Amazing Growth Path
My normal day starts with a teleconference with my subordinates at various sites, at Medupi, Ingula, Kusile, Majuba Rail and Duvha Power Stations. we do a review of the previous week then develop a weekly stakeholders engagement plan. I managed a team of 15 competent managers and I have a good professional working relationship with them. My position is fulfilling because each day has its own dynamics. I spend most of my days meeting with various stakeholders such as government, media, business chambers and organized labour associations to engage and discuss matters of mutual interest regarding the Eskom New Build projects. the most challenging aspect of my job is the demands from the stakeholders. working for this area in the business, which has a budget of over R350 billion comes with its own challenges and expectations from stakeholders.
Pros: exposure to multi-billion rand project environment, travelling, career growth, exposure to confidential information
Cons: long working hours, unrealistic demands and expectations from stakeholders,

Great experience being at the construction site of Kusile power station.

Meeting and associating with many kind of people from many cultures of around the world. The gaining of knowledge of how Philippines people work in chains to speed up production is a eye opening to the meaning of team work. The most challenging aspects of the Job here is the language barrier between Expatriate Engineers and other Co-workers from around the world.
Pros: Great experience for future references and job prospects.
Cons: Construction industry has very long hours and it's almost impossible to study futher.
