I look forward to a favourable response to these documents and to a long and productive working relationship with you and your company. DIMITRI ATHANASOPOULOS CURRICULUM CEO JACOBA FC SINCE 2010 VITAE Jacoba Football Academy P.O. Box 4565 White River, Mpumalanga, 1240, South Africa OBJECTIVE Academy To Whom It May Concern: Below is a detailed summary of all my recent achievements and accomplishments to date. I have always had a passion for football, moving out of home at 13 to board here at King Edward VII School in Johannesburg, the school gave me the drive to love and be passionate about sport as it was my turn to when I missed home. Only after school did I become more sports specific and moving into the line of football alone. Football has been in my blood since I was born, knowing I would make a career out of it until I started helping out at schools and coaching the sport after school. My playing career was very short after school at Corithians Black Aces and due to an injury I decided I would peruse a career in football either managing or coaching. We all have to start somewhere so I decided coaching it would be. My Life after this will never be the same as I have only grown with in the sport, starting various youth programs at 5 great schools around Johannesburg and the program is only getting bigger as more schools want to start implementing the program. I then couldn’t stop there and needed more so I then decided to started a football academy in Johannesburg which currently has close to 100 + boys and a SAB team. I trust my below achievements will assist you in helping me continue my career as a football manger within the game. Yours in sports. Dimitri Athanasopoulos Jacoba Football Academy P.O.

Box 4565 White River, Mpumalanga, 1240, South Africa SKILLS Academy I am really good at man managing people, building relationships and giving people a platform to excel through their departments. I constantly listen to constructive criticism as that determines growth with-in myself and allows me to achieve greater heights through football. I love putting systems in place, working on goals and objectives of all staff members so we can reach our objectives and achieve our goals. I Set clear, but realistic expectations — be it tactics, effort or attitude. For me, this is one of the most important aspects of management, so I don’t neglect it. I generally speak with every player at every session. I get to know the players, what their ambitions are, and how life is outside of the club. You can’t possibly expect to be a supportive and effective manager if you know nothing about your players. As a manager it is important to set problems and support your, colleagues and players to find suitable answers. For example, ask them how they would approach defending a set piece from a specific area or how to get organised while outnumbered. Let them break off into smaller groups and encourage them to come up with solutions. It will not only help you to improve, but it also has the added bonus of showing players that you value their input. This is also done with the assistance of the coach. I am respectful and dignified. I must at all times show the players, the referee, opposition and everyone else for that matter, respect. Some people may throw this back in my face, but as the team’s leader, you have a responsibility to guide your players and the club through both your words and actions. I most definitely try to praise more than criticise. If I do need to criticise, I try to do so constructively. This way I allow for both staff and players to grow within their wrong doings. I am always educating myself to want better and to do better both for myself and my colleagues. I enjoy working in the administration department of the club as well setting out the constitution of the club which articulates the Laws and by laws the club will follow. All this in lined with the philosophy and methodology of the club. An organizational structure carries inherent capabilities as to what can be achieved within its frame. Jacoba Football Academy P.O.

  • Dynamics of Competition in Two-Sided Markets with Differentiated Products: a Case Study of the Radio Industry Following the Primedia/New Africa Investment Ltd Merger
    Work in progress, not for citation purposes Dynamics of competition in two-sided markets with differentiated products: A case study of the radio industry following the Primedia/New Africa Investment Ltd merger Rantao Itumeleng1 Abstract The decision by the Competition Tribunal to unconditionally approve the Primedia/New Africa Investment Limited merger case (NAIL) is the subject of this paper. This study conducts an impact assessment of the Primedia/NAIL case. It does so using market definition as the first step in the assessment of competition in the Gauteng commercial radio industry. In markets with two different groups of customers, repositioning is fundamental in the assessment of anticompetitive effects post-merger. Utilizing tools identified in literature and international cases, the study adopts an ex post approach to assess competition in the Gauteng commercial radio industry. Findings indicate that in mergers that do not lead to join control, merging firms’ stations reposition away. Highveld and Kaya repositioned away from each other post-merger. Because of this dynamic nature of radio as well as the structure of the market in Gauteng, no effective competitors to Kaya and Highveld in the relevant market, Highveld and Kaya’s prices rose faster than other radio stations’ prices post-merger. At an industry level, competition also deteriorated post-merger as prices rose significantly mainly because of few sales house. These findings imply that the initial decision by the Competition Tribunal to approve the merger unconditionally may be incorrect. Keywords: Unilateral effects, coordinated effects, Repositioning, Partial acquisition 1. Introduction Prior to 1978, radio was the leading electronic medium in South Africa before being surpassed by television (Competition Commission, 2006:1).

  • Media Development and Diversity Agency Postion Paper
    T h e Medi a De vel opme nt and Div ersi ty A g e n c y The Position Paper process The Media Development and Diversity Agency (MDDA) Position Paper was finalised taking into account public comments received in February 2001, the public hearings conducted by the parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Communication in March 2001, and consultations with stakeholders throughout 2001. This Position Paper contains the underlying philosophy and rationale of the MDDA, and as such represents government policy that has guided the drafting of the MDDA Bill, which will be debated in Parliament during 2002. The Executive Summary is available in all official languages on request. This Position Paper is also available on the GCIS website: http://www.gcis.gov.za page 1 "Everyone has a right to freedom of expression, which includes: (a) freedom of the press and other media, and (b) freedom to receive or impart information or ideas." From the South African Constitution, Chapter Two, Section 16 "Open debate and transparency in government and society are crucial elements of reconstruction and development. This requires an information policy which guarantees active exchange of information and opinion among all members of society…….. The democratic government must encourage the development of all tiers of media – public, community and private. However, it must seek to correct the skewed legacy of apartheid where public media were turned into instruments of National Party policy; where community media were repressed; where private media are concentrat- ed in the hands of a few monopolies, and where a few individuals from the white community determine the content of media.

    Assessing the influence of radio advertising on consumer purchasing decisions ND Efstathiou orcid.org 0000-0002-1752-3807 Mini-dissertation accepted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Business Administration at the North-West University Supervisor: Prof CA Bisschoff Graduation: May 2019 Student number: 29788285 ABSTRACT Radio advertising is an advertising platform that has been used by brands, products and services since 1922. The influence of radio advertising on a consumer’s purchase decision is tough to determine, the research that is available on radio advertising, in general, is far less in comparison to other advertising research studies in the marketing of brands, products and services. This study aims to determine the impact of radio advertising on a consumer purchase decision. The majority of research studies rely on the effect of television and print advertising, and recently internet advertising has shown a higher engagement level for consumers to influence purchase decisions. The disruptive nature of internet advertising has had an influence on the revenue generation for traditional platforms such as radio, print and television. Radio advertising is a platform used mostly by local businesses on a local radio station in the business’s vicinity. Research in the marketing of brands, products and services have included radio advertising, including the singularity of a message of a radio advertisement message recall-analysis. Traditional media are used for branding, and to action a sales promotion to drive revenue generation and profitability. Advertising does have a material influence on consumers’ purchase decisions. The question in this study determines the influence radio would have on that decision.
