The department says it convenes this lekgotla alive to the reality that women continue to face discrimination in the workplace.
Central to the lekgotla's objectives is the continued call for meaningful transformation, not only at ownership level, but also with matters related to culture and attitudes in the workplace.
The department hopes the lekgotla will provide a platform for women to share their workplace experiences and best practices that their respective companies have implemented, which have yielded results.
The two-day meeting will culminate in a gala dinner that will be hosted in honour of Home Affairs Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, who was recently appointed as the first woman Chairperson of the African Union Commission.
The gala dinner will also celebrate South African fashion and jewellery design.
