A school rugby star, a soldier, a provincial powerlifter, a renowned waterpolo coach, a lifelong entrepreneur, a dynamic teacher, a beloved headmaster and a gay man who came of age at a time when South African society was a lot more closed-minded than it is today. In his memoir Fush, Shaun tells the story of a life dedicated to changing the lives of others.From his school days at Jeppe High School for Boys and his activism heading up the SRC of the South African Student Teachers Union, to his time as an army infantry officer and his memorable teaching career, Shaun has always had an irrepressible instinct to succeed and to lead no matter what happens, no matter the challenges.Because he has had to leap hurdles and overcome adversity almost every step of the way, Shaun has sought to leave the institutions he has been a part of as better, more diverse, more inclusive environments, where children feel safe and everyone has a space to be themselves. Covering love and loss, pageants and coups, life-affecting homophobia, false accusations of terrorism, and the love of hundreds of students who have passed through schools Shaun has been part of.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When Year Of The Gherkin was released in 2012, Jason Brydon quickly established himself as quite probably the least likeable protagonist of South African fiction since.forever. And yet his diary of extreme narcissism, grand delusions and ongoing calamity also turned him into one of the funniest. Now The Jasonator is back! Not that his friends, or pretty much anyone in Cape Town, have missed him since his job-loss-imposed banishment to his folks' place in the godforsaken Eastern Cape, where's he's been biding his time serving the soaks - mostly his dad - at the Port Alfred Country Club.Anyway, point is Jason Brydon is back and this time he's gonna crush it. He's definitely on track to land himself a top job and a hot chick (or ten!) because he's grown as a human being since 2010. Yes, you better believe it. Now he's a father (admittedly a reluctant one), a surprising exemplar of racial inclusiveness (well, briefly) and a trusted (in his own mind) house-sitter. I mean, what can go wrong when you've got a Tamboerskloof mansion to look after (along with some French bulldogs, which basically take care of themselves, right?) and an Audi Q7 to drive (though technically you were asked not to).?Only good things, china! Is this the year that Jason redeems himself as a human being? Will he attend the lesbian wedding of his sister (to female Bakkies Botha)? Will he land himself an actual girlfriend (even though what he really wants is a 'banker' who he 'can sext at 2am')? Will his tummy stop bulging more than his wallet? An important question, that, because he reckons he has a shot at being one of Cosmo's most eligible bachelors, and even though he's a player's player and chicks dig him he's got to keep on his game.Whatever it is, it's the Year Of The Turnip. When Year Of The Gherkin was released in 2012, Jason Brydon quickly established himself as quite probably the least likeable protagonist of South African fiction since. forever. And yet his diary of extreme narcissism, grand delusions and ongoing calamity also turned him into one of the funniest. Now The Jasonator is back!

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. South African politics is a murky, convoluted, complicated world that not many people truly understand. Many of us want (and probably should have) a better idea of how our country works and why it is the way it is, but there is so much political coverage (TV, radio, newspapers, books, online, dinner conversation.) that it's virtually impossible to get a practical overview of things. Who's our minister of defence? How does parliament work? What does Trevor Manuel actually do? Why's our department of education in such dire straits and what's being done about it? These are important questions that many readers will struggle to answer, but would like to be able to. Equally, they are curious to know whether Juju has any power left, what the freedom charter actually says, and what's in store at the next elections. Hence this book: an accessible, easy-to-read guide to SA politics from one of the premier political commentators in the country. The entries are short, punchy and entertaining, with vibrant and innovative design elements, but with enough (excellent) opinion and insight to make it the must-have political read in the run up to Elections 2014.Key elements are the (even-handed) predictions about what different people and organisations should do in the short-, medium- and long-term versus what they are likely to do, as well as the patented Stephen Grootes Power Rating(TM) which reveal who actually holds the power in South Africa's political corridors. South African politics is a murky, convoluted, complicated world that not many people truly understand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The smartest people in your organisation could be just under your nose, and you might overlook them because they are not part of your management team. Always remember who it is who does the work every day From the early days of her career, the leadership approach taken by South African businesswoman Nosipho Siwisa-Damasane has been to work with what she found.She realised that to achieve success in an organisation one needs to be on the ground and to interact with those at shop-floor level. Equipped with determination and empathy, and bolstered by her fathers belief that she could do anything her brothers could, she faced down any potential prejudices against her because she was black and female, irrefutably showing those labels to be irrelevant in contemporary business.Hers is an extraordinary story but, as she shows, it doesnt have to be a unique story. Drawing from her own experience, she has formulated a leadership philosophy of valuing diversity and engaging employees as fully as possible. Its a template whose seven steps are clear and accessible, and its results empowering. The smartest people in your organisation could be just under your nose, and you might overlook them because they are not part of your management team.

But how exactly does Winnie Madikizela-Mandela qualify? From space adventurers (Mark Shuttleworth) and fighter pilots (Sailor Malan) to entrepreneurs (Elon Musk) and environmentalists (Ian Player), this is a raucous celebration of the country we call home, proving that you just can't have the bad without the good.Picking up where he left off with the bestselling 50 People Who Stuffed Up South Africa (also nominated for the Bookseller's Choice Award in 2011), Alexander Parker's irreverent but scathing writing is once again brought to life by Zapiro, who adds the finishing touches with his iconic caricatures. What does it take to be a flippen brilliant South African? Simple: sheer brilliance and a good story. So, whether naughty or noble, crazy or controversial, here are 50 of the most talented, successful, inspirational, intriguing, fascinating Saffers to have walked the planet.
