The Amathole District Municipality is situated within the Eastern Cape Province,
between Port Alfred and Port St John’s. The district stretches from the Indian
Ocean coastline in the south to the Amathole Mountains in the north. The District
includes the large parts of the former Ciskei and Transkei homeland areas, which
means the district has large disparities within its borders. It is bordered by the
Cacadu, Chris Hani, and OR Tambo municipalities. The District covers a land area
of roughly 21 229km².

The Amathole District Municipality is a water services authority in terms of the water
services act which makes it responsible for all water and sanitation related
infrastructure issues within its jurisdiction which include planning for the servicing of
water and sanitation backlogs, implementation of infrastructure projects to address
such backlog and operations and maintenance of the completed projects.

2. LEARNING EVIDENCE
2.1 Introduction
This section will offer insight into what work experience and knowledge I have
gained within my current employ that has enabled me to be competent in the duties
that I fulfil. The following critical cross-field outcomes were used in the evaluation of
my competent abilities:
Team Work
Self-Management
Motivation
Communication
Macro Vision
Each of the above critical cross-field outcomes will look at the following:
What has been learnt? (New knowledge, skills and attitude).
What has changed in practice? (What are you doing that is new or
different, has improved in terms of relationships, practices, etc.).
The significance and impact of the learning on self, others and the
organisation and lessons this has taught me.
How does this learning contribute to exit and critical cross-field outcomes?
Areas that could not be mastered and requires further improvement.
Portfolio of Evidence: N Silinga Page 9
2.2 Teamwork
2.2.1 What lessons were learnt?
Working in an environment where we all have shared targets often poses serious
challenges in planning for those targets. Often in a work environment there is a so
called ‘silo mentality’ where there is a lot of individualism amongst peers. This is
often reflected in the results/bottom line. The lessons learnt are that in a work
environment where there are shared targets, teamwork both at planning and
implementation is paramount in achieving optimal results. There is no place for ‘silo
mentality’ in the workplace.
2.2.2 What has changed in practice?
Objectives within the organisation are linked and these need to be aligned to the
overall organisational strategy. People can no longer work in isolation in an
organisation and they need to form part of the bigger strategy especially if one is
assessing performance. Working within a functional team guarantees you results.
2.2.3 What was the significance and impact of learning?
Working within functional teams can only build employees not just to achieve the
bottom line but for personal development as well. Organisations who encourage
teamwork even at strategy formulation / planning stages will find it easier to follow
through during implementation. Results are a guarantee in adopting this approach.
2.2.4 Areas that could not be mastered?
There are people who are resistant to change and take longer to adapt to working
within teams and those people need a little more patience which is not one of my
strong points. The other area is the level of influence that I have (which is minimal)
in an organisation that fails to listen to its employees and act on suggestions. This
can be very demoralising and can affect team culture and performance if there are
people with low morale as a result of such.
Portfolio of Evidence: N Silinga Page 10
2.2.5 Evidence statement
Critical cross-field outcome
Teamwork
Date
Technical Strategic Session Presentation prepared by myself dated 30 November
2012; Minutes of meeting held to discuss non-expenditure and proposed solutions
dated 03 June 2013 and expenditure report for the month of June 2013.
What did you apply in the workplace to prove competency?
During my tenure as the acting Senior Manager: PMU I had the responsibility to
prepare a presentation for the Engineering Strategic Session which was scheduled
to take place on 30 November 2012. The outcomes of this session would inform the
institutional strategic session which was scheduled to take place early in 2013. Part
of the challenges I observed during my time with my institution was the issue of
people working in ‘silos’ to achieve linked common targets. I had tried to raise this
issue with management but to no avail. I therefore saw this opportunity to present
this issue in my presentation starting with the complexities that we faced as an
institution in meeting both our own and national targets and how important
teamwork was in achieving these targets.
My analysis was vindicated when we were faced with a crisis of under-expenditure
towards the end of the financial year and we needed to spend R160 million in the
month of June 2013 in order to meet our financial target of 100% expenditure. This
was a huge task as our monthly average expenditure throughout the financial year
was 22 million which required a 627% improvement in expenditure. I therefore
proposed that we meet as a team and come up with an implementation plan on how
we would spend this allocation. Through teamwork we were able to spend 149
million in the month of June 2013 which represented an improvement of 577% in
expenditure. This was further proof that working together in functional teams
produces results.
Portfolio of Evidence: N Silinga Page 11
How will you prove this claim? List the evidence you have attached:
Technical Strategic Session Presentation prepared by myself dated 30
November 2012 (Annexure A);
Minutes of meeting held to discuss non-expenditure and proposed solutions
dated 03 June 2013 (Annexure B);
Expenditure report for the month of June 2013 (Annexure C).
Describe why the evidence is sufficient to support your claim?
The evidence traces the process from when the challenge was identified through
my observations through to a situation which vindicated my observations and
proposed solutions. The initiative that I took in raising critical elements of how we as
a unit conducted our work is commendable and the proposed solutions that I
recommend in the presentation show forward thinking and good leadership. The
evidence of the actual expenditure through teamwork is further vindication of my
observations and analysis.

2.3 Self-Management
2.3.1 What lessons were learnt?
Time management is a very important attribute both from a personal to professional
level. One of my weaknesses has always been time management and this
weakness I have been able to acknowledge as being something that I need to work
on everyday. Through studying of my MBA degree which requires a lot of one’s
time and commitment I have learnt a lot about myself in terms of self-management
and this has helped me be a better person. I am now able to manage myself better
both at work and personally.
2.3.2 What has changed in practice?
Self-management plays a crucial role in how one achieves his goals, a person
might be ignorant and think that it is fine to be “late than never” but being late could
be the deal breaker in a business meeting that one goes to. This also relates to
differences in culture across countries where time management is considered very
important in how you do business in that country. From a business perspective self-
management is one of the definite dos for a person doing business across different
countries. Also from a work ethic point of view, time-management is a crucial
discipline that needs to be adhered to.
2.3.3 What was the significance and impact of learning?
Self-management can only build me and make me a better person. Conceding to a
‘weakness’ is already half the battle lost and there is no such thing as inability to
self-manage. One needs to take control of one’s time and not let time control you.
2.3.4 Areas that could not be mastered?
Consistency is an area that I still lack due to very hectic work and personal
schedules. One is able to properly plan his time accordingly but at times disruptions
Portfolio of Evidence: N Silinga Page 13
tend to come and cause inconsistencies in time management which need to
addressed. This therefore requires prioritisation of important tasks first.
2.3.5 Evidence statement
Critical cross-field outcome
Self-Management
Date
Witness statement of 08 October 2013 from Ms Pumeza Sikuza who was my group
leader in my MBA study group and schedule of my year planner for 2013.
What did you apply in the workplace to prove competency?
I have been making full use of Microsoft software systems to plan each aspect of
my school and work in terms of meeting dates and times, assignment due dates,
test due dates, exam due dates, day visit due dates, video conference due dates,
site meetings, amongst others. I have also been able to allow days in between for a
reminder to all the group members factoring everyone’s work commitments
including mine. I have also been able to utilise the same schedule to schedule my
work activities accordingly.
How will you prove this claim? List the evidence you have attached:
Witness statement from my group leader in my MBA group (Annexure D);
Schedule of my year planner for 2013 (Annexure E).
Describe why the evidence is sufficient to support your claim?
Pumeza is witness to my abilities of applying myself effectively as she is part of my
group and we share common targets in terms of the MBA. My schedule is proof of
how I have used what I have learnt and gained in practise.

2.4 Motivation
2.4.1 What lessons were learnt?
Employees in the work environment like to be valued and management often have
this perception that employees are only motivated by monetary incentives.
Motivating employees using different techniques and methods besides incentivising
goes a long way in creating happy employees. In a recent talent retention survey
conducted by the Amathole District Municipality, it was revealed that job satisfaction
/ motivation ranked higher than compensation in terms of the reasons why people
leave the employ of ADM. This therefore means that different models of motivation
need to be considered in the work environment. The other lesson learnt is that not
everyone is motivated by the same things and as a manager you need to know
each of your employees needs in order to attempt to satisfy them
2.4.2 What has changed in practice?
Motivating employees is no longer about incentivising but a broader context is
considered once you start looking at motivating. I am able to understand that at my
level (where I have no direct decision making powers in terms of incentivising) I am
still able to motivate my subordinates using different methods and still get the best
out of them. As a manager/leader one needs to be well versed on the different
motivational models so as to know what each of his/her employee is motivated by.
Even though this does not guarantee a reduction in staff turnover but it does create
an enabling environment for employees to thrive on.
2.4.3 What was the significance and impact of learning?
Portfolio of Evidence: N Silinga Page 15
Motivating employees creates a conducive working environment and employees
are able to perform optimally if they are motivated. This has led to employees being
highly motivated within the unit and has also linked well with the current
performance management framework.
2.4.4 Areas that could not be mastered?
Not all motivational models have been tested on the employees of the unit.
2.4.5 Evidence statement
Critical cross-field outcome
Motivation
Date
Minutes of PMU staff meeting dated 05 July 2013 and photos taken on 02 August
2013 of a site visit and employee of the month award.
What did you apply in the workplace to prove?
During my tenure as the acting Senior Manager: PMU I noticed how low staff
morale was. The institution had undergone a change in leadership and
management and there were many uncertainties about people’s jobs and future. I
had just completed my human resources model which dealt with crafting a winning
employee value proposition as part of talent management. The institution has in the
past lost a lot of talented employees to other municipalities especially the Buffalo
City Metropolitan Municipality. The institution had just conducted a study into the
issue of staff turnover in order to come up with a talent retention strategy. Job
satisfaction rated amongst the highest reasons why employees left the ADM.
I unfortunately had little influence on the extrinsic satisfaction factors which are
related to remuneration but I had an influence on the intrinsic satisfaction factors
Portfolio of Evidence: N Silinga Page 16
which included rewarding excellent performance with the introduction of an
“employee of the month” award linking this to the existing performance
management framework as well as the introduction of job rotation wherein site visits
were to be arranged for non-technical office based staff to get exposure to the
technical aspect of the job.
How will you prove this claim? List the evidence you have attached:
Minutes of PMU staff meeting dated 05 July 2013 (Annexure F);
Photos taken on 02 August 2013 of a site visit and employee of the month
award (Annexure G).
Describe why the evidence is sufficient to support your claim?
This evidence shows initiative from my side to introduce motivators for employees
who had low staff morale. The pictures taken are that of an employee of the month
with award which is in the form of a floating trophy. This photo is framed and put up
at the reception area so that customers can be able to see dedicated employees.
The other photos are that of site visits conducted for office based staff.

2.5 Macro Vision
2.5.1 What lessons were learnt?
As part of strategy development, a lot of alignment needs to take place within an
organisation. This alignment needs to be in sync with the overall
business/organisational strategy. My organisation which is operating within the
public sector arena has had a challenge when it comes to this alignment. We have
been unable to meet our targets in the past as the organisation has been focusing
on things that are not our function and neglecting our primary function which is
being a water and sanitation authority within the jurisdiction of the Amathole District.
2.5.2 What has changed in practice?
I never thought of an organisation as containing inter-related processes especially
in meeting targets. I have always looked an organisation from my view where I was
sitting and never understood that what I am doing in my “little corner” contributes
greatly to the overall success of the organisation. I now see myself together with my
team’s contribution as being a part of the bigger organisational strategy. I now look
at human resource issues differently in that I am cautious of how it contributes to
the overall success of the organisation.
2.5.3 What was the significance and impact of learning?
Getting the correct alignment of the organisation’s strategy contributes immensely
to the success of the organisation. Re-engineering the current structure to be in line
with the organisational strategy can only lead to success.
2.5.4 Areas that could not be mastered?
None at this point in time

What did you apply in the workplace to prove?
During my tenure as the acting Senior Manager: PMU I had the responsibility to
prepare a presentation for the Engineering Strategic Session which was scheduled
to take place on 30 November 2012. The outcomes of this session would inform the
institutional strategic session which was scheduled to take place early in 2013. Part
of the challenges I observed during my time with my institution was the issue of
alignment to organisational strategy which was lacking. Engineering services
department which is the major and most critical role player in the water services
authority function is under-resourced and this affects the organisation’s strategy in
addressing infrastructure backlog. All of the above was highlighted in my
presentation with the aim of influencing the institutional strategic session which was
taking place early in the following year.

Portfolio of Evidence: N Silinga Page 19
The issue of alignment is something that is an integral part of my organisation’s
success. What I was able to raise formed part of a bigger process of organisational
re-engineering and was also part of the institutions transformation agenda which
seeks to transform the Amathole District Municipality into an employer of choice
and be an example to other district municipalities both regionally and nationally.
