Abstract
In light of the skills shortages as well as the economic
and political realities facing South Africa there:has been
a growing realisation of the need to integrate Blacks and
women into the mainstream of organisational life. Enabling
'Blacks and women to achieve their economic aspirations
through non-discriminatory employee development has been
recognised as crucial to long term economic growth in South
Africa. In response to this reality a number of
organisations have implemented affirmative action
programmes. however, many South African organisations
express dissatisfaction with the progress in Black
advancement, despite considerable investment of resources
in training and development initiatives. (Abbreviation abstract)
