Democracy

You are the enemy of autocracy
You bring literacy ekasi (ghetto)
Democracy is the rule of the people
By the people, for the people
Through the people

Democracy you are the solution to Africa`s autocracy
You are the cousin of liberty, equality and fraternity

Thumbs up to all democrats!!
For many souls
Have been lost in political battles
Many remain with political scars
Their hearts are decorated with sores
Many have been lost in demonstrations
In their plight for social emancipation

Cowards say: in democracy the minority will have their WAY,
The majority will have their SAY
Alas!! For today we a generation of valiant soldiers
Soldiers who won’t bow down
Until the majority have their WAY

This surpasses the desire for money or any gain whatsoever!Money cannot buy you a vision but a clear vision can get you money.

Creating Valuable People Relations part 1

Most organizations are evaluated using the value of assets that the organization has.  People are busy valuing their worth using the financial and material possessions that they have. This is an easy way of evaluating the worth of an organization that can be easily ascertained and accepted across board. While money and possessions determine our worth there is one great resource which is the base and foundation of all resources that a lot of people hardly consider if at all they consider it. This foundation and basic resource is the Human Capital/ Resource of an individual or organizations. Many contemporary writers and authorities on leadership and management have grasped this fundamental truth and now prescribe it to organizations and leaders whom they advise. John C Maxwell always say that, “everything rises and falls on leadership.”  I totally subscribe to his assertion. It is a leader’s attitude towards his people that determines the productivity of his people. There are...
