Rautenbach worked as a human resources manager at the Nelson Mandela Foundation
I remember how forgiving Madiba was. For the life of me, as the HR officer of the Nelson Mandela Foundation, I could not dismiss any of his household staff in the six years I worked for him. Oh I tried, but a couple of days later they were forgiven and back in his employ. He taught me a lot about forgiveness, not so much about HR but, wow, was he a forgiving man.
