Welcome to Afriforte
Afriforte was established in February 2005 as the commercial arm of WorkWell, The Research Unit for Economic and Management Sciences, at the North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus.
Congratulations!
Afriforte would like to congratulate Prof. Leon de Beer for his award as most cited research paper at AOSIS for Stander, F.W., De Beer, L.T., & Stander, M.W. (2015). Authentic leadership as a source of optimism, trust in the organisation and work engagement in the public health sector. SA Journal of Human Resource Management, 13(1), 12 pages. doi: 10.4102/sajhrm.v13i1.675
Steinmüller Africa’s Sasol Mill Maintenance (MM) team in Secunda significantly improved their safety record last year after struggling with one Recordable Case (RC) safety incident on average every two months previously.
Aspiring for high performance without ensuring a conducive underlying work climate is like trying to drive a car without an engine. The process enhanced and encouraged the identification of greater opportunities for continuous improvement in our business based on valid and reliable information. Our business has not only became a nicer place to work but we have, and continue to, become even better at what we do.
