M.B.A. / It is universally accepted that HIV/AIDS is one of the greatest threats facing mankind. It has a profound effect on humanity from a social, political and economical perspective and its effect can be catastrophic. Many research studies have highlighted the devastating effect of HIV/AIDS on people and society irrespective of geography albeit that the impact of HIV/AIDS varies from place to place. Further it has a profound impact on the economical well being of an individual, an organisation and for that matter an entire economy. Building blocks of economies throughout the world, in the developed and developing world, are people. People make up the labour force that organisations draw on in the various economies. Anything that upsets the productive labour force has a profound impact on the success and sustainability of these economies. In laymen terms an economy is based on individuals and grouped into structures that are organisational in nature. Organisations are essentially made up of a collection of people brought together to work in a collaborative manner and achieve an overall organisational objective. Therefore the impact of HIV/AIDS on the productive labour force affects the organisation directly which in turn has a casual effect on the entire economy. Organisations are therefore a critical stakeholder in the redressing of HIV/AIDS. Although a substantial amount of research has been conducted highlighting the impact of HIV/AIDS to an organisation there has largely been apathy by organisations in addressing HIV/AIDS. This has however improved over a period of time as the impact of HIV/AIDS on an organisation has been documented with greater accuracy and the analytical tools, methodologies and monitoring mechanisms have improved. This dissertation attempts to determine to what extent an organisation, Organisation X, is successful in the positive maximisation of Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) with regard to HIV/AIDS considering that many academics and industry specialists have expressed that to address the HIV/AIDS problem one has to focus on KAP. Organisation X was chosen since it is acknowledged by its industry peers, government and nongovernment organisations as having made considerable success in addressing HIV/AIDS from an organisational perspective.
