Telkom CEO Sipho Maseko's biggest challenge

Telkom’s interim results for the six months ending 30 September 2020 show good performance, but the company’s biggest challenge remains - growing revenue.

Over the reporting period, Telkom generated R21.4 billion in operating revenue, down 0.4% from last year’s R21.4 billion.

It’s tough having to play in a reasonably level playing field huh?

He also slashed their spending on fibre expansion through its network wholesale division Openserve
Cutting spending in the 1 are you could potentially show growth. Telkom is being run like an SEO again.

I'd say his biggest challenge is sourcing new false number plates..

Ex cit. The amount of people leaving the company is also a factor. These days you sit with incompetent people, who neither has the will nor the skills to do anything. A friend of mine in SA said apparently there a rumors for more job cuts in May 2021. there your brain drain goes again. Jeez unreal.

With the amount of negative "growth" Telkom is doing... I can't see not having job cuts

What brain drain? Is Telkom not overflowing with AA/BEE employees?

Telkom will need bail out soon as they just not interested in competing anyone.
