change is good

President Jacob Zuma reshuffles his cabinet.

A vigorous, adaptive organisation system(organisation ) remains so because of the process of learning and self renewal, this is one way that organisations use in order to stay relevant by bringing in new people and skills.

 On the 02 August 2012 our President Jacob Zuma applied this principle of systems should constantly change and renew themselves. Cabinet reshuffling is an event that occurs regularly, when the head of government rotates or changes the positions of ministers in the cabinet, to read more on who has been replaced by who or who are the new ministers in the cabinet www.timeslive.com

Reasons why the cabinet should be reshuffled:
  • Replace resigned, retired and dead ministers.
  • Bring in fresh skills.
  • Remove poor performers.
  • Reward hard workers within the cabinet.
  • Create and rename departments.
  • Reassign responsibilities to departments.

Change is always good but constant change can affect continuity and can bring disruptive to the governance and to delivery of services, the question that rises is, is the change about the performance of the ministers or is our president building a wall with people who would re-elect him and is he dismissing people who are a treat to him?

    1. that the question one every one's lips i think, because his been promising lots of thing but we do not see him delivering but hopefully all the cabinet members will do their job because this makes our president look bad if these ministers are not doing what they are suppose to do

  5. I think that our President is doing this because maybe he can see that this people are not doing their job and he's afraid to confront them so he then come up with this strategy.

    1. which is a good strategy i must say....because working with people is very hard n it can be very hard to tell who is not doing their work..... so for ministers to stay long in the cabinet its best they o their job well and then they will be awarded

  8. I mean what kind of reshuffle is this that does not address the failure? I mean,national government took over Limpopo's Education department and yet books have not yet reach poor communities there and EC education is in crisis. Oh Madam Zuma cheerleader in chief is actually in charge. I must say never mess with this guy, he is an elitist. I think its the reshuffle for the third time or something... yeah the spear man he is trying very hard for his way to mangaung
