Rwanda,one of the world's fastest growing economies

-
Recently a Summit took place in the beautiful capital of Rwanda,Kigali. One of the organizers explained why they chose Kigali over Johannesburg,Lagos and other big cities.
For those who question our development saying " no greatness, it is just manipulative ..etc", get ready to face the facts.
6 reasons why we chose Kigali Rwanda
International firms that are new to Africa often ask me why we chose Kigali over Nairobi, Lagos and Jo'burg for the Dot Finance Summit (www.dotfinancelive.com), Africa's largest FinTech event. While all these cities are great meeting venues, here are 6 reasons why we found Kigali to be the right place for our event.
1.Rwanda is Africa's safest country, and the 9th safest country in the world, ahead of Luxembourg, Portugal, New Zealand and Netherlands (source: WEF)
2. Kigali boasts the most modern convention facilities in Africa (outside of South Africa). These facilities are at par with the world's best. No wonder the Radisson Blu Kigali Convention Centre recently won the Best Conference Hotel in Africa Award. The country has hosted many prestigious events including the World Economic Forum, Interpol Congress and the AU Summit.
3. In a continent that is spread over 30 million sq km, Rwanda's location is remarkably central. Flying times to major cities are as follows: Nairobi (1hr 15 min), Jo'burg (3 hr 55 min) and Lagos (4 hr 30 min). Rwandair, the best new airline in Africa, offers convenient connections to most business hubs across the continent.
4. Rwanda is the only country in Africa that offers visa on arrival to passport holders of all 54 African countries.
5. Rwanda is an African success story that is still being written. Be it financial inclusion, gender diversity, conservation or modern technology, Rwanda is making giant strides in every sphere of social & economic activity.

So there you have it! Next time you are invited to attend an event in #Kigali, make sure you don't miss out.

Your “purpose” is the most powerful ingredient to achieve your dreams.

As the new year unfolds, let a new consciousness dawns within you . So in one word tell me what you want 2020 to be like for you? To be better off than who I was in 2019 (financially, morally, spiritually and physically) Are you willing to do what it takes to be better? Nobody wants to have a bad year, everyone wants to have a great year but how many people are ready to do the work? I expect that for everyone who wants to become an authority in a particular field/industry, you should know the top people in that field. "Every front end success has a back end work".-Jimi Tewe There are so many people leading in different industries. How many of you are ready to do what those people did to get to the position they are now? We only see their success, not their work. At the end of the year we are always very excited about the things we want to achieve in the following year, where do all the energy and excitement disappear to when the year begins? Let me ...

Conflict is unavoidable but manageable

In the past few days, I have been taking courses on Conflict Management in the Workplace. We all face conflict whether it be at workplaces or in our homes and believe me, n o team will agree on everything, so disagreements and conflicts are inevitable. As a good student of  Joeel & Natalie Rivera, serial entrepreneurs, authors, speakers, and educators, I wish to share with you some insightful tips of managing your emotions and remaining calm as a way of de escalating a conflict at workplace. Renowned therapist John Gottman says that “Ninety-six percent of conversations that start badly will end badly.” There is truth to this statement. When handling a conflict, whether it is your own or someone else’s, the most important factor is how the conversation begins. And the most important factor for that will be your emotional state. This is why the ability to regulate your emotions and remain calm is so important. Check-In:  The first ste...
