Five actionable plans would be key to help kick-start South Africa’s gross domestic product (GDP) growth – currently standing at below 1% – and address the country’s triple threat of unemployment, inequality and poverty, delegates heard at business consultancy IQ Business’s smartgrowth.co.za event in Sandton last month. IQ Business CEO Adam Craker said the first key area was the deployment of the National Development Plan (NDP), aimed at addressing a number of challenges, including the triple threat, by 2030. He noted that while the NDP was a good policy document, the challenge since its launch in 2012 had been the execution of its objectives.
