Training and developing blacks to fill managerial positions is also fraught with the concern to avoid tokenism and is compounded by the shortage of skilled black managers. Some organizations have adopted a proactive stance to accelerate the advancement of blacks into supervisory and managerial roles. Companies listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and elicited from a special survey of top companies were the target population for the study. The simple random sampling technique was used to draw a sample. Primary data for the survey were collected by means of a structured questionnaire, which was personally administered by trained field research assistants. A response rate of 83 percent was obtained. Key findings emerged with regard to the implementation of affirmative action as a strategic business intervention. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
