My blog today started out on a very different subject – I was about to comment on another executive interviewing tip – which IS important, and could nail you the job (or be the nail in the coffin)….but in light of yesterday’s events in parliament seems utterly mundane and superficial!
Yesterday, which will go down in history as #Blacktuesday, had civil society, the media, everyone I follow on #twitter and the team in my office up in arms about the passing of the Secrecy Bill (I can’t even remember its official name).
So my big question is…..with all of this uproar, where is the voice of ‘Business’. Gareth Ackerman and media execs aside, I saw and read nothing yesterday that gave me the impression that this ‘issue’ affects corporate South Africa at all. Perhaps the CEO’s of big business were busy with other stuff, perhaps their executive teams were at leadership training sessions?
I don’t have the answers – but the vacuum is deafening!
