Page 9 - FINANCIAL CONGLOMERATE SUPERVISION

PHILASANDE PATESI
Role in the PA: I supervise an interesting insurance group. The favourite part of my work is analysingthecompany’sstrategyand financials. I also get to hear about the entity’s most pressing issues and how management plans to solve them. I love to see the entity’s strategic objectives play out. My job exposes me to how leaders implement strategy and how they deal with the obstacles along the way.
Fun fact: I like to explore, if there is an interesting new restaurant, trust me to get a reservation! On a normal day, curling up to a self-help book or an interesting novel. Lately, I am also trying to play the piano, by the end of the year, I could be playing Cannon in D, one of my favourite pieces. This month I start my weight loss journey. By December I want to have reached my weight loss goal – a whole total of 25kg to go. Wish me luck and give me tips!!
