New Names moves to the net<br />
As from 19 October organizational<br />
announcements and the<br />
organizational charts can be<br />
found under the heading People<br />
on the move on the Eka intranet.<br />
■ You can reach this section by selecting Highlights<br />
from top navigation and then People on the<br />
move.<br />
Because this site has been opened on the intranet<br />
we are no longer publishing news in brief<br />
about changes among personnel, and Eka Echo<br />
will now be coming out four times a year instead<br />
of six.<br />
If you have a ready-to-publish organizational<br />
announcement for People on the move, or questions<br />
on how to go about publishing, please con-<br />

Summer students shine in Marietta<br />
■ As part of their work with us, the summer interns<br />
are asked to deliver a structured presentation<br />
to Eka management, staff and their parents<br />
before going back to school.<br />
The presentation requirements include a short<br />
introduction of the student, who they reported<br />
to and on what project or task they worked on.<br />
Each student also presented the results he/she<br />
generated and offered some conclusions and recommendations.<br />
Finally, students told the audience<br />
what they had learnt this summer while at<br />
Eka … a few interesting insights were revealed.<br />

This year’s event took place on August 7.<br />
This year’s summer interns worked in Marketing,<br />
Regulatory and Technical roles, in Market<br />
Research for Specialty Oxidants, and for the<br />
IT group.<br />
The presentations were very interesting and<br />
in addition to presenting, the “required content”<br />
strong messages were embedded in their presentations<br />
such as the value of patience, perseverance,<br />
<strong>team</strong>work, flexibility, innovation, ambition<br />
and nutrition (the students apparently raided<br />
the cookie and sweet supplies at the Mariet-<br />
der the Vacancies heading, to be found under<br />
Provided links in the middle column of the intranet<br />
Home page.<br />
ta office on a regular basis!) to a successful project.<br />
The event had an interesting development<br />
<strong>when</strong> the <strong>team</strong> working in Process Applications<br />
and Technology Department under the supervision<br />
of Dr Patricia Wild, announced that they had<br />
developed a patentable idea during the time they<br />
had spent at Eka.<br />
Byron Smith closed the event, thanking the<br />
students for their dedicated efforts at Eka this<br />
summer. He wished them well in their studies<br />
and extended an invitation for them to return<br />
next summer.
