M A N A G E M E N T I N F O R M AT I O N FOREWORD FROM THE DESK OF FRANCOIS KUTTEL OCEANA CEO It’s often hard to believe how quickly time is passing. There appears to be so much to contend with in life that striking a balance between your various roles and responsibilities, while still attending to your own wellness, is becoming more of a work of art. For our company, as a responsible corporate citizen, we seem to have no less of a challenge managing the expectations and requirements of our various stakeholders. Yet, I am pleased to say, that we are producing excellent results and our performance is being acknowledged on various fronts. In this issue we tell you, among others, about our approach to and achievements regarding sustainability and Broad-based Black Economic Empowerment; the various training workshops to assist and empower our employees in terms of wellness, managing disability and the Khula Trust; we meet the latest Emerging Management Development Programme graduates; we introduce our new department, Group Strategic Services; we provide feedback on last year’s culture survey; and we have a personal account about our recent Lucky Star product recall. Enjoy your reading and I trust that you are having a fantastic 2011!
