Congratulations to the Grindrod employees who graduated in December 2019 after completing the Senior Management Development Programme (SMDP) and the Management Development Programme (MDP) through the University of Stellenbosch. It takes dedication and tenacity to study whilst working full time.
To Vicky Commaille, who was awarded ‘Best Student’ of the SMDP Durban, well done. She received the Directors Award with an overall average of 82.6%, after completing 4 discipline-specific assignments, and 1 integrated personal reflective assignment. As winner of this, she is the recipient of the Lincoln Business School award which will give her the opportunity of studying a Business Management Degree of her choice. Vicky has worked at Grindrod for 7-years and currently holds the position of Procurement Specialist. This achievement reflects her constant commitment, and I am immensely proud of her achievement.
Congratulations to Camilla Moodley, Andrew Davies and Lungile Sikhakhane, for being in the top SMDP team in Durban, to Joana Garcez for being in the top SMPD team in Johannesburg, and to Izak de Wit for being in the top MDP team in Johannesburg.
A superb achievement and well done to all of you.
