Transformation

SIS Group openly accepts the responsibility extended to all South African organisations to support economic transformation and to create equal opportunities for all in the workplace. The group shows immense support of this initiative and ideal. The SIS Group strives to consistently extend our vision and enhance our ability to deliver our goals. Ultimately, we wish the SIS Group to be a fully transformed, honest and vibrant representative of the South African community.

The group supports sustainable transformation. We are building a group that extends our values and attracts like-minded individuals. The Group is characterised by fairness, trust and respect, passion for our work, excellence in client service, and the recognition that we are multi-faceted and global workforce.

Through consultation with key internal and external stakeholders, we have identified and developed key transformation goals. They are holistic and far-reaching, designed to transform the SIS Group  into a truly Southern African firm by:


• Leading the industry with numbers of Black partners and managers
• Maintaining our 50:50 gender split and increasing the number of women in senior leadership positions
• Maintaining our quality focus on training and mentoring
• Building a corporate culture that embraces all staff
• Empowering businesses through active BEE spend
• Investing funds, talent and time back into our communities
• Providing excellent service to a broad spectrum of diverse clients
• Building awareness, recognition and support, internally and externally, for our transformation activities

Accountability for Transformation rests with our CEO, Robert Hawley, who reports to the Executive Committee on strategic progress. The Transformation Committee, comprising the , CEO, COO and senior business leaders is charged with formulating and driving strategy. All Business Unit Leaders have Transformation as a key performance indicator and they, in turn, hold their partners accountable for the achievement of specific qualitative and quantitative goals.

The core of our transformation strategy is to develop our leadership from within. Retaining talent for long-term careers requires that we provide exceptional work experience, on-going learning and a constantly evolving corporate culture.   Change, if it is to be meaningful and on-going, must be a passion. These principles guide our thinking.
