Highlights from our TWIMS Breakfast Seminar | Gender, Generation & Leadership in Manufacturing

Manufacturing excellence is not only about technology, systems and processes it is fundamentally about people.

Our recent TWIMS Breakfast Seminar brought together diverse perspectives on how we can build a more inclusive, competitive and future-ready manufacturing sector.

Key takeaways from the conversation:

• Manufacturing excellence requires a people strategy that meaningfully integrates diversity and inclusion.
• Inclusion and psychological safety must be developed as core leadership competencies.
• Sponsorship matters creating access and opportunities beyond established and powerful networks.
• Companies need to back the talent of the young women and men they are developing.
• In production environments, credibility is built through trust, respect and delivering on business targets — capabilities that both women and men can leverage for advancement.
• Ultimately, South Africa’s industrial competitiveness depends on unlocking the full potential of our country’s talent.

Thank you to our panel, guests and everyone who joined us for this important conversation.

What was your biggest takeaway, and what will you carry back into your organisation?

Manufacturing excellence is not only about technology and processes it is about people.

TWIMS’ breakfast seminar on Gender, Generation and Leadership in the Manufacturing Sector brought together a diverse panel to share industry insights, lived experiences and leadership perspectives that cannot be fully understood through a single viewpoint.

Held during Women’s Month, the conversation created space to reflect on gender equity: acknowledging the progress made, recognising the work that remains and thinking honestly about where we are headed.

Celebrating women’s achievements is essential. It creates role models, inspires future generations and makes women’s contributions visible. However, if we focus only on individual success stories, we risk overlooking the systems that continue to shape and limit the experiences of many women.

We must ask not only who has succeeded, but also who remains excluded and what must change so that success is no longer the exception.

Thank you to our esteemed panellists:

Unathi Mapoma CM (SA) MBA — Bidvest Group Freight
Lorraine Hill — Aspen Pharma Group
Nduduzo Chala (Cert.Dir.)(MBA) — NAACAM
Nkhethoa Molapo — Umbuso Wamaqadi Investments
Nosipho MaKhuzwayo Hardon — Toyota Motor Corporation

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this meaningful and necessary conversation.
