Background and experience
I own Nthake Consulting, a human resources consulting firm.
I have been been consulting in human resources management since 1999. Prior to that, I was Chief Executive: Human Resources at the South African Broadcasting Corporation.
I have a total of 19 years experience in the human resources consulting environment. I worked in financial services, manufacturing, electronic and print media industries.
My experience has spanned across the private and public sectors as well as NGO/community environments.
The size of the organisations where I have worked range from small medium sized locally based organisations, to large multinational global players.
Prior to consulting, my roles have ranged from that of HR officer to Group HR executive.
Through these experiences I have developed the necessary leadership, strategic and facilitator competencies required in today’s highly innovative business environment.
The added advantage of these experiences for me has been the development of "Emotional Intelligence" skills.
