Please provide examples of how you have shown vision and the ability to innovate in your career (Approx 100-300 words)
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated vision and innovation by consistently aligning my actions with long-term business strategy and fostering collaborative improvement. At EWSETA, I exercise vision by developing skills intelligence hubs that anticipate national energy trends and translate them into actionable sector plans, ensuring our strategies prepare the workforce for the future energy mix. I also innovate by co-designing qualifications with industry and academia, integrating new technologies such as green hydrogen and LPG transition frameworks into skills development programs. During my tenure at Sasol, I applied forward-thinking to capital portfolio management, where I optimised project pipelines and risk assessments to secure budget targets up to R1 billion. I championed the implementation of a modernised maintenance management system for research facilities, improving compliance and preventing operational delays, an innovation driven by proactive system thinking. I actively pioneer new approaches by respectfully questioning existing processes. For instance, I initiated and developed a pipe inspection plan for Research and innovation facilities after identifying a procedural gap, enhancing safety and system longevity. I also led experimental lab projects, such as conducting corrosion tests for bio-sludge transport, which contributed to a high-profile sustainability project’s approval and potential cost savings. I believe innovation thrives in collaboration. I regularly engage colleagues and external stakeholders to co-develop solutions, whether through industry forums like SANEA and SAPVIA or internal workshops. By inviting diverse perspectives, from plant operators to senior researchers, I transform ideas into executable outcomes, such as optimising blending operations or enhancing data quality in analytical labs. Ultimately, my vision is to continuously bridge technical expertise with strategic foresight, ensuring that every decision not only solves today’s challenges but also positions the organisation for sustainable, future-ready success.

About Rising Star

The Rising Star Programme, operated by BlackBark Productions, has been established for the purposes of recognising, celebrating and connecting young talented people who have a capacity for achievement and success and who contribute in an inspirational manner to the future of our nation. The qualities that elevate Rising Stars to the top go beyond performance and technical excellence. Rising Stars are polished, brilliant individuals with tremendous promise and great talent who excel for reasons that go far beyond their technical abilities alone.

Talented people make things happen, are highly committed to achieving goals, innovate very rapidly, and create a great deal of value (for companies and/or themselves) when their talent is spotted and harnessed.

The Programme aims to be a significant and sustainable vehicle through which organisations, our country and our continent can identify and nurture these “organisational and national assets” who are set to play a key role in shaping the future of our country and our continent.

The Rising Star Programme is establishing a living community of young African talent that will be developed, mentored and provided with platforms for development and communication, therefore enabling them to become role models, opinion leaders and the inspiration for other future African Talent.
