30 Administrators Selected to Cascade Radical Shift Within NGAOs Structure
The government is progressively accelerating the implementation of its visionary blueprint on socio-economic empowerment and inclusive prosperity under the Bottom- Up Economic Transformation Agenda
(BETA).
The plan encompasses an array of transformative programmes and
interventions designed to elevate every section of the society, with
citizens and communities at the lowest level of the social ladder acknowledged in the efforts to revolutionize the country’s landscape of opportunity.
In light of the above, we have set about cementing the position of the
National Government Administrative Officers (NGAOs) as the driving force behind these strategic interventions and forge an environment where every single mwananchi will not only thrive but also contribute
meaningfully to our collective prosperity.
Being the government’s first point of contact with the grassroots, this department plays a pivotal role in transforming service delivery and maximizing the impact of our targeted investments.
As such, we have purposed to conduct a reorientation programme for these officers with the intent to infuse a lead-by-example mindset across the structure and
ensure effective, efficient and responsive services at all levels.
The motivation for this programme is grounded on the fact that the everchanging
times call for renewed ways of doing things. In this regard, that which worked yesterday may not always work today or even tomorrow.
To kickstart the process, we have launched a training for thirty (30)
Trainers of Trainers (ToTs), who will be taken through the organization
and functions of government; security, peace and safety for citizens; and
most importantly, public participation, engagement, and communication.
The Deputy County Commissioners (DCCs), who were selected on merit, will also be trained on other cross-cutting issues, key among them climate change and employee wellness and psychosocial support, after which they will be deployed to cascade the radical shift in mindset to all the ranks within the NGAOs structure.
Our ultimate objective is to ensure that every interaction our administrators have with mwananchi is marked by empathy and a
genuine understanding of their unique needs and concerns.
