PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING FOR MINISTRY OF COOPERATIVES
Together with the Secretary to the Cabinet, Ms. Mercy Wanjau, we have this afternoon led the Executive Office of the President’s team in Negotiating and Validating the Performance Contract for the Ministry of Cooperatives & MSMEs.
The overall objective is to institutionalize Performance Management within Government to facilitate accountability for results by all Ministries, Departments and Agencies; and ultimately cascaded downwards to the individual scorecard.
Other officers in the Executive Office of the President’s team included PS Parliamentary Affairs Ms. Aurelia Rono; PS Cabinet Affairs Idris Dakota; PAS Performance Management Joshua Mwiranga; Ag. Head of GDU Lee Kyonze and Director General of E-Citizen Services Isaac Ochieng.
The Ministry of Cooperatives Team was led by CS Wycliffe Ambatsa Oparanya and PS’s Susan Mangenyi and Patrick Kilemi.
Moving foward, all persons serving in the Public Service will be held accountable for results.
