    Think like a business person

    August 19, 2021 / No Comments

    #mindspark Lessons from #JMB of EY  L1: Technical people complain about lack of resources. Business people find a way around the problem. At EY, we are business partners of top executives and captains of the industry. We hire business people, not technical people. Don’t tell me “I could not write a proposal because I do not have a computer.” Say “I handwrote the proposal methodology with a pen on paper. The Secretary will type since I don’t yet have a computer.” That is a winning mindset. Only for practical or business people. #business #mindset #people #strategy If you think like…

    How and where to start a business?

    March 25, 2019 / No Comments

    Why are there so many people jobless? The answer… They don’t know where and how to start a business. And those who have an idea are hunting for capital! You could join an entrepreneur or become one. Avoid jobs which make you relax too much in which case you don’t grow in terms of exposure and business acumen. Start by asking: what is the biggest problem in my community? How can I solve this problem cheaply for people? Which people would be happy with the solution? Are they willing to spend some money to someone who fixes it? Who else…

    How big is the luck factor in startup success?

    April 20, 2018 / No Comments

    Luck is useless if it lands on the unprepared. As they say, if you want to win a lottery ticket, first go and buy the ticket! However, lucky you might be, without having bought the lottery ticket. There is no way you are going to win. Many successful people agree with the saying that “good luck is when preparedness meets opportunity.” If you want to get lucky, first prepare. If you want to get that dream job, express interest for it by submitting your application or going to meet the recruiter. The opportunity might be there, but if you do…

    Governance and profitability: is there a dilemma?

    March 22, 2018 / No Comments

    The reason for good governance is to earn as much profits as you can in a sustainable way. In non-government organizations and public sectors, the reason for good governance is to deliver stakeholder value. There is no dilemma whatsoever unless there is conflict of interest, corruption and fraud. These are tell-tale signs of bad governance. In my position as the Secretary of the Institute of Corporate Governance of Uganda, we are creating environment of best practices to make sure that people understand how to run their businesses profitably and sustainably. When this is achieved, economies prosper, and people succeed. You…

    Know the difference between an asset and a liability. Even for some of us accountants, the clarity between assets and a liability is not so clear. For example, is a car an asset? Take the following test: Does your car have potential to increase future cash flows? Does the benefits your car offers exceed the costs of ownership in the long term? Does your car have a resale future value higher than the purchase and maintenance costs combined? Does your asset have readily available buyer anytime you would want to dispose of it? You get the idea. An asset should…
