Go beyond PR

Be an active citizen.

CEO’s can do more than issuing PR statements to help the post warlike environment in KZN and parts of Gauteng. They need to look beyond their own businesses and use geographically focused tactics to help devastated businesses and communities.

1. Stop the price gouging immediately. Name and shame those responsible.
2. Drop your fees in these areas in urgently needed services like toll roads, banking , communications, power etc
3. Move staff there to physically help others
4. Donate more to the solidarity fund and help community organisations
5. Offer help on logistics like transport , warehousing , collection points , staff etc.
6. Help out the retailers with funding and capacity
7. Help the manufacturers to get restarted

It’s been a week already!!!
The sound of crickets from corporate South Africa after a near coup is deafening. Or are you hedging your bets to see who wins?

The people are watching!
