As
a Director (Manager) do you spend enough time and effort working "on"
your business?
Not
"IN" your business but "ON" your business!
Most
Directors simply do not and cannot find the time to be the "architect"
and "designer" of their businesses. In the new corporate environment
this will prove fatal – all Directors need to understand their roles and
responsibilities under the new Companies Act, along with the roles and
responsibilities (and avenues for redress) of the other stakeholders in their
businesses. Ignore this at your own peril!
Within
the next few months everything you ever knew about how business works in South
Africa is going to change. The New Companies Act, aimed at modernising and
streamlining the South African business environment is due for promulgation.
The New Companies Act impacts every area of business and it is essential for
all business people to familiarise themselves with the changes and areas of
impact so as to prepare themselves for a whole new way of doing business. Every
change creates either a challenge (with associated costs and risks) or an
opportunity (with associated benefits).This seminar will
provide you with the handles to assess and act on both.
