2/4/2003 - Feedback From Eskom, Ellisras TSC (15 months after the Celebrating Humanity program.)
To: Brian Moore, Mthimkhulu International, Durban SA.
Afrikaans version (English version below.)
a) Ek het n groep gehad van 30 mense wat uit verskillende kulture bestaan het. Die mense kon nie met mekaar oor die weg kom nie, daar was gedurig wrywing tussen verskillende rasse as ook tussen mekaar van dieselfde ras en kultuur groep. Die mense was negatief en met niks tevrede nie.
Griewe was aan die orde van die dag, dit het ook die Depot in n swak lig gestel by bestuur.
Ons het toe besluit op die Celebrating Humanity training, waarop die mense ook baie negatief was in die begin.Namate die kursus gevorder het, het die mense se houding van negatief na positief verander.
b) 30% van die personeel het heeltemal bedreig gevoel teenoor die kursus, hoofsaaklik die mees negatiewe mense, waarby die res neutraal was teenoor die kursus.
c) Tydens die kursus het die hele groep van 30 mense stelselmatig verander en heeltemal positief begin raak, teenoor mekaar, die maatskappy en teenoor die toesighouer.
d) Wedersydse kommunikasie, respek en eienaarskap het met 100% verbeter. Die vertroue tussen die verskillende kultuur groepe is herstel en sommige van die mense wat negatief was se houding het so verander dat hulle selfs bevorder is na hoër posisies met groter verantwoordelikheid.
e) Die manier waarop die interaksie oefeninge gedoen was, was baie interessant. Die grondlegging van die hele kursus was so suksesvol dat die groep nou verder gaan met 'n _leadership_ kursus wat vanaf Maart - November 2003.
English Version
a) I had a group of 30 people from diverse cultures. They could not get on with each other, there was continuous friction between the different race groups, and between people from the same race and cultural group. The people were negative and were not satisfied with anything.
Complaints were the order of the day, this also placed our Depot in a bad light with management.
We decided on the Celebrating Humanity training, the people were very negative about the programme initially. As the course progressed the people=s attitudes changed from negative to positive.
b) 30% of the personnel felt totally threatened by the course, mainly those who were most negative, and the rest of the group was neutral about the course.
c) During the course the whole group of people changed systematically and began to be completely positive towards each other, the company and the supervisor.
d) Communication, respect and ownership improved from all sides by 100%. The respect between different race groups has been restored and some of the people who were negative have changed so much that they have been promoted to higher positions with greater responsibility.
e) The way in which the interactive exercises were facilitated was very interesting. The foundation of the entire course was so successful that the group is now going ahead with a leadership course from March to November 2003.
