In this episode of the Greatvine we chat with Jacobus Vorster an expert in millennial behaviours and work experiences.
We hear how Jacobus has had a diverse career which has helped construct some interesting insight into employment, especially for millennials. We learn about his childhood in South Africa where warthogs roamed freely through backyards and a young Jacobus was affectionately called a 'little lion'. We hear how after completing high school he joined the military, became a military instructor, and later pursued an apprenticeship in heavy earthmoving mechanics. Moving up the ranks with this career, Jacobus immigrated to Australia and completed an MBA and began a higher research degree at CQUni, while still enjoying a role in the mining industry. Two-and-a-half years later and the concluding chapter of this journey is lurking in the distance as he moulds the pathway for a PhD in organisational psychology.
