“As is often the case when a big company or SOE makes the news for the wrong reasons, Eskom has responded to its most recent dire situation by making a move to replace the leadership at the top of the organisation. Such a leadership change to deal with very public organisational failure is, of course, not unique to South Africa or its SOEs (or even to Eskom specifically). It has always been a savvy PR move; this is even more true in an era when most people are inundated with information, rarely getting past the headlines of even the bigger stories.”
