Institute of Risk Management South Africa celebrate Women’s month

August serves as one of the important
months for women in South Africa as it marks the journey that about 20 000 women took back in 9 August 1956. IRMSA saw it fit to host an inspiring women’s day high tea to celebrate the strength and leadership of women in the Risk Management fraternity.

The event was to honour extraordinary qualities in the Risk Management sector. It resonates with what Charlotte Maxeke once said that ‘ this work is not for yourself. Kill that spirit of self and do not live above your people but live with them and if you can rise, bring someone with you ” as it encourages women to uplift, empower and celebrate the resilient spirit of women leaders.

Six women from the Department of Community Safety and Transport Management: Ms Maria Mothibedi, Ms Pelo Kotu, Ms Leagiso Motshumi, Ms Thobeka Leteane, Ms Mokopi Moatshe and Ms Dikeledi Letsapa were given an opportunity to form part of this prestigious event today in Johannesburg. Your contribution to the Department’ Risk and Ethics Management will go a long way in improving the Department and shaping it to a clean audit
