Eskom has announced, with regret, the resignation of Phillip Dukashe, Group Executive for Generation. Describing Mr Dukashe as a true, loyal asset to Eskom and the country, the utility said he will leave on 31 May 2022. In his resignation letter and discussions with Eskom executives, Dukashe cited the need to achieve a balance for the benefit of his health, family and work responsibilities.
Phillip leaves behind a competent team to ensure sustainability of the Generation Division.
Rhulani Mathebula will act in the interim as the Group Executive for Generation while the recruitment process proceeds. Mathebula is a seasoned Power Station General Manager and acted as Group Executive for Generation prior to Phillip Dukashe’s appointment.
Eskom said in a statement: “We salute Phillip for his rich legacy of selfless leadership, integrity and excellence in serving Eskom and the country for the past 26 years and for always standing up and doing what is right and honourable.
“Phillip’s vast institutional knowledge, cross-functional skills and sound executive leadership experience created the much-needed stability in the Generation Division during his tenure and achieved some significant strides in helping to turn around the division’s poor performance since his permanent appointment to the position from April 2021.”
