I am called Mustapha B. Mugisa, MBA, CPA, CFE. And I help organisations like yours develop winning strategies. After several years of helping organisations stop revenue leakages (fraud management and forensics), I am now helping organisations grow their revenues! Welcome to developing a winning strategy. A little bit about me I was prize winner (scored highest mark) in Corporate Strategy, the then ACCA paper 12 exam in June 2002. Thereafter, I got fascinated by technology.

Of job insecurity and positional leadership
The scale of corruption and abuse of office being reported in the Uganda press has surely set new records. It is possible to get dizzy after reading the kind of frauds folks are pulling off.

If you work in a bank you know how many young people’s careers have been cut short due to the problem of cash shortages. Others are outright theft. Many of them are due to lack of attention to detail, something that can easily be fixed. One would expect a…
