Our stakeholder priorities

2 Stakeholder priorities

Sheila Khama, Director, Extractive Resources Services, African Centre for Economic Transformation (ACET)*

"In an industry that impacts many aspects of life, meaningful stakeholder dialogue is both a moral and business imperative. It enables a corporation to understand the views and expectations of its constituents. These are premised on the belief that natural resources must be exploited responsibly and for public good. Engaging stakeholders is particularly useful in countries where oil development is a new phenomenon as it helps increase understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing industry and governments."

About this report

Three employees having a conversation

Since our first report in 2005 we have transformed as a company and the scope of our reporting and our understanding of what we need to report has changed accordingly.

Stakeholder issues

Four employees looking at some machinery

We have addressed all our stakeholder issues either in this report or on our corporate website.

Inclusive engagement

Stakeholder engagement icon

One of our goals is to develop an extensive programme of engagement as failure to manage our external stakeholder engagement effectively impacts on our ability to do business.
