@samuel_sesah The DVLA offices across the country are mostly being run by crooks. The Ashanti regional office at Aboabo is a special case.

[Seyifunmi Oderinde | HR Sis @seyithemie]

To provide maximum value as an HR professional, you must wear certain hats and deliver your work in a way that balances Strategic vs Operational work.

1. The Strategic Partner with a Business mindset. A person who can sit with executives and draw an inference on questions like, “If we want to grow by 20% this year, what talent do we need to hire or develop now, what systems or processes needs to improve etc?”

2. A Change Agent who acts as a bridge between old and new ways. A person who manages transformation when a company goes through a shift in direction, and helps employees see the bigger picture ensuring they are ready, willing, and able to adapt.

3. The Administrative Expert aka Engine room that delivers efficient HR processes.
You are able to manage the moving parts of payroll, benefits, compliance, and hiring etc. While this is the most traditional role, it should be handled with high efficiency through technology so HR has time for the strategic stuff.

4. The Employee Champion who can Increase employee commitment and capability. You represent the “voice” of the employees to management ensuring staff are engaged, trained, and happy. Your job here is simply to protect the company’s most valuable asset, it’s people.

Entry level HR is highly administrative/operational, however as much as you can, tie your work to business impact and ensure that your day to day job activities provides value to all stakeholders.

Dave Ulrich (father of modern HR Management) postulated this framework, I have simplified it.

Cheers.

When you’re early in your career, success looks like this:
Do your job well.
Meet deadlines.
Deliver quality work.
That’s important.
But as you grow, the game changes 🧵

There’s an unfair advantage to become crazily successful that many people simply neglect.

Think about this:

Herbert Wigwe & Aig founded Access Bank. Before that they were directors at GTB.

Before Moniepoint became a unicorn, the founders had worked at another unicorn called Interswitch.

Before Steve Jobs started apple, he had interned at HP.

Coincidence? No.

Exposure is an unfair advantage.

Do everything you can in this life to get into rooms where your dreams are the norm for the people there.

See what is possible.

Get into those circles by any legal means necessary.

You’ll never be the same. Something will rob off on you.

Save this if you look forward to becoming a manager, leading a team, making decisions. Moving up the ladder to a managerial level.

Here are 5 things you should be aware of👇🏾

1. What brought you here will not keep you here.
You were promoted because you were excellent at your job. You delivered. You executed. You outperformed.
Then the job changed.

2. Management isn’t about being the best anymore.
It’s about making others their best.
You move from being the star performer to building stars.

3. Stop competing with your team. Start cultivating them.
This is where many new managers struggle.
We keep doing what made us successful before instead of creating space for others to grow.

4. Your output is no longer tasks.
Your output is people — their clarity, confidence, and growth.
That shift takes time to accept.

5. Your job is to build people.
The promotion wasn’t a reward for past performance.
It was an invitation to develop an entirely new skill set: clarity, feedback, emotional intelligence, patience, restraint.

A great way to know what skills you should pursue to become wealthy

"If the smartest person I know were to start a company, what would they hire me for?"

Create the list. Figure out which one you are passionate about. Hone that skill at the best institutions in that field

This GeyHey case is quite sensitive for obvious reasons, but in true fidelity to the law, the likes of Achimota School, which is a fully fledged government institution, cannot be viewed as similarly situated with Wesley Girls and other mission schools. Schools in the latter category are government assisted.

Do I agree that public schools should not entertain religious restrictions? Yes, absolutely. The only issue here is that these are not exactly public schools. The fact that a school receives funding from the state does not alter its fundamental character. What we may be losing sight of is that the establishment of these mission schools is itself an expression of the institutions’ Article 21 rights.

Perhaps it is time for the state to acknowledge how much we have failed as a nation. We should have enough fully public schools, and good ones too.

It is perfectly fine if you disagree with me. I understand how sensitive this matter is, but if you are willing to dig deeper, please look up the First Amendment Establishment Clause for comparative purposes. There is a long list of U.S. Supreme Court cases that affirm how constitutional it is for religious institutions to teach their doctrine to the exclusion of others. Of course, our context is peculiar. For example, some students are posted to these schools and do not always choose to go there. In light of this, the state, in its broader mandate to uphold secular governance, should allow students to reject such postings on religious grounds. The state should also commit to building more public schools and elevating them to the same standard as these now prestigious mission schools.

Beyond these reservations, the state cannot secularize mission schools simply because they receive public funding on a non discriminatory basis. Doing so would amount to an unwarranted curtailment of the Article 21 rights of these religious bodies.

@youngcephas @Jay___Sterling @BetaMaltGhana @youngcephas For the purposes of my education, I would like to know what issue Malta Guinness is facing. Do you care to share?

[David Ofosu-Dorte @ODORTE]

Of what importance is wisdom if it gives no guidance on avoiding folly; or of power that does not empower others; or intelligence if it allows ignorance to thrive or abundance if scarcity multiplies......without sharing relevance vanishes and the noise becomes a tinkling cymbal.

Pretending you didn't see something so the other person doesn't feel uncomfortable is a level of empathy not everyone will understand

Qualities of Management:

1. Communication

2. Delegation

Leaders build effective systems that allow efficient delegation.

Some of you studied management principles, got an A in that unit but came out illiterate.

“Money promised is not money earned.”
Whether it’s a delayed contract, a raise that never came, or assuming a business deal would pull through, spending in advance has a way of leaving you broke, embarrassed, and scrambling to fix things. Biggest mistake? Spending money I hadn’t received yet. Don’t count on money until it’s in your account.
