Carole Knight - A Professional Profile
Carole Knight is a wordsmith who is equally at home with both the written and spoken word. As a writer she specialises in large, prestigious, researched features ranging from a double-broadsheet wall chart on drug awareness, which was published as a social responsibility initiative, to broadsheet features focusing on sustainability issues such as food and energy security.
Profiles on such South African illuminati as past President Nelson Mandela, Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, President Thabo Mbeki and the late industrialist Dr Anton Rupert, which were published across all major national Independent Newspapers’ titles, constitute a body of work that she is particularly proud of. Whilst her book “Miracles of Hope: Surviving and Thriving in the 21st Century” and her Cape Argus Sustainability Series reflect her particular interest in and passion for social and environmental issues.
As a futurist specialising in the arena of emerging realities, Carole is one of the most powerful and influential female professional speakers in South Africa today. Her unique podium presence and exceptional knowledge base have combined to make her a sought-after speaker at many prestigious international and national conferences such as the pre-Beijing United Nations Conference for Women, an international cardiologists conference, a top-level South African Police Services conference and the National Research Foundation’s Thrip (Technology and Human Resources for Industry) Programme.
She is the founder of White Rock Enterprises, a group that includes:
White Rock Publishers, a publishing company that is dedicated to publishing quality books and other media that contribute to social upliftment and environmental education.
White Rock Communications, a communications company that focuses on initiating, researching and writing quality features across different media on a wide range of subjects pertaining to environmental awareness and social responsibility.
