SPEAKER AND FACILITATOR:  COBUS OELOFSE, EMERGENCE GROWTH

Cobus holds BA (Hons), B Comm and LLM degrees and his academic research includes topics as diverse as the socio-economic agenda of employment equity legislation, the psychological employment contract as a common-law implied contract term, the influence of Trade Union Federations on public policy and the appropriateness of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, over litigation, in employment disputes.
 
Cobus has had 20 years of corporate experience with both JSE  and  London FTSE listed public companies and his industry exposure includes the mining, manufacturing, retail logistics and supply chain and the high tech manufacturing and engineering industries, where he held executive HR roles, amongst others with regional and global remits.                   

After 10 years in the UK Cobus, returned to South Africa, and the KZN North Coast, in 2009.  A significant consideration for returning home was his desire to positively contribute to the social and economic potential of South Africa, and the region that he lives in. 

Following a career break he established himself as an independent consultant conducting consultancy assignments locally and regionally in Africa for a number of international intermediaries and clients. Cobus heads up HR consultancy firm Emergence Growth's KZN operations.
