Excellent Learning Curve
As Quality Manager for three different programme that have more than five packages, each day I need to ensure all the daily activities are completed without any deviation from the client specification. Stakeholder engagement is critical to ensure alignment with all the project team. - Lesson learnt through all my involvement is: 1. communication is the key element in project execution. 2. Control measures should be monitored and reviewed at all times 3. Supplier evaluation is critical (that is to ensure good/reliable products/service from suppliers) 4. Record management is key (evidence in case of dispute) What I enjoyed most was do engage with all disciplines (e.g. Civils, Eletrical, Mechanical, suppliers...etc,) The most challenging aspect of my job was travelling (My projects where situated in all provinces).
Pros: Great Team
Cons: Too much travelling

I have the opportunity to further my studies.
I have a good working relation with my co-workers. i usually prepare the maintenance schedule a week in advance to prepare the workshop for the man power required to do the necessary preventative maintenance. i then communicate with the relevant supervisor for any additional or unplanned maintenance resulting from breakdowns to acquire the required spares/material for repairs.
Pros: the company does provide for further studies.
Cons: My working hours limit the time i can get to further my studies.

I am a well-balanced and hardworking person. I am determined, intelligent and responsible and am a team player. I am known as a trustworthy and reliable person and I am positive in everything I do. I have very high expectations and morals in life and I enjoy motivating people around me to the best of their abilities.

I have excellent organizing skills and I have a natural flair for public relations where I can utilize my communication and liaison abilities.

Technician
Zintle Kalashe has attained N6 in Electrical Engineering Certificate from P.E College. I have acquired skills in the working environment from Vodacom (Internship) and Transnet apprentice program; these are both challenging and dynamic industries. I spent the last three years at Transnet and acquired detailed knowledge as an electrician. The trade objective is to provide sound basic knowledge and practical skills within the specified time (Phase 1 – Phase 3). This has enabled me to function in a group, individually, accurately, safely and reliably in maintaining stations, harbours and workshops installations as well as enabled me to carry out installation work effectively. I have since completed my trade and I am a qualified Electricia. I have also acquired technical skills from both companies and have learnt to work with people thereby cultivating my communication skills as well as my professional image.
Pros: Good for my career
Cons: Working more hours

Pros: Have opportunities for promotion
Cons: Longer working hours and working under pressure.
