Pravin Gordhan - the man with the calculator of a brain and the 52-letter title of minister of cooperative governance and traditional affairs - has condemned the business world’s crisis managers to being a contradiction in terms.
Talking about the water shortages in Johannesburg, he told the press: “We do have a problem, but we cannot describe anything as a crisis. A crisis is something that is unmanageable.”
So crisis managers, off you go, you naughty oxymorons you.
