Why should Magufuli reject Sylvia Mulinge as Vodacom CEO

[bigmind]

Ungeandika kwa kiswahili angekuelewa vyema kabisa.. !

Vodacom senior management wameondoka wengi for various reasons na kuendesha kampuni kama Vodacom, inabidi uwe 'tested' ndio maana uzoefu wake kusimamia division yenye ukubwa wa VodaTZ ni muhimu. Ni part of the 'winning team' of Safaricom who will bring learnings. So to answer your question...no hakuwepo

The former CEO failed us big time. He wasn't competent enough to keep a motivated and qualified time let alone have a successor. Failure no 1. Second?
Umejitahidi kuwatetea but stay back and watch.
Adios!

 

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

Wewe hesabu siku..

Jibu swali basi. The previous CEO alikuwa foreinger, and the one before that, and the one before that... Whats different now?

In the pretext of good communication and presentation skills, Tanzanians have not been given an opportunity to work and demonstrate their capabilities. A number of foreigners without or with moderate skills got contracts and lucrative jobs in Tanzania. It is a painful thing to see foreigners employed as librarians, teachers, even bank tellers. I agree that correct attitude is key, however, there are quite a number of Tanzanians with impressive skills and attitudes. The question is, why Sylvia?
Nenda nchi yoyote duniani, wanalinda uchumi wao, wanalinda ajira zao. Wewe nenda hapo Kenya, uwe secretary tu kama hawakuwekei sumu ufilie mbali.
I can't wait for another opportunity to work with a Kenyan. I love what usually happens, atanikimbia tu.

Diversity and different approach to solving problems is key to ever changing dynamism of business environment today regardless of location and situation.
That's why USA is ages ahead for having the foresight of pooling in different talents from all over the world.
Contrary to your assertion that Kenyans won't work with foreigners , we cherish and value their input if at all we can learn something new that adds value to whatever we already have acquired! If not competitive and an asset,no Kenyan will entertain you not even mama mboga!

Kwa hiyo nani anafaa? Do you have a suggestion?

Kwahiyo unakubali kazi hamkutangaza hiyo? Kweli adui wa mtanzania ni mtanzania.

How do you know if I'm or not a non executive member of the board.
N.B. This is JF where people of all sorts are in here.

If you are a member of the board, then you are part of the team that put her there. You gave her this job sasa umekuja kumlalamikia nani JF?

I worked with some of them, and was accommodating. Sijui kwanini mnawaona bora sana. I like working with them and I put them on their toes. Kwa fitina hawaniwezi wala kazi hawaniwezi. Diversity my foot

Utasikika na wahusika.

There are rules and there exceptions to the rule. You cant site exceptions as an arguement against the rule. Naamini wapo foreingers wakutosha ambao sio compentent. What has this got to do with Sylvia? Her CV is public knowledge. Safricom CBU ni kama Vodacom Tanzania nzima. Safaricom inaingiza mara kumi ya revenue za TZ. Ni kawaida sana katika group of compnies kutoa talent one place that is perfoming well to another smaller entity. Watanznia wametoka Telecom za hapa ni kuenda departments in other countries too. The same has happened in other industries in the country. The question of why Sylvia lies in her CV, what I am curious to know is WHY NOT SYLVIA? Yaani one would think there was an obvious better qualified candidate that was passed over considering the noise

You are the only Tanzanian in this forum with an an advanced outlook and pragmatic approach to issues discussed in here! Bravo!
Your folks here are stonewalled to rebuff any alternative view be it beneficial to them in the long run.

Inawezekana lakini mimi niko coporate na moja ya skills muhimu ni communication. Tunatakiwa kufanya presentations, case studies, offer persuasive counter arguements etc katika mazingira ya kazi na biashara. Usipuuzie hiyo skill. Nime-interview watu wanonyesha grade kwenye cheti nzuri lakini hawana utashi wa kumshughulikia mteja. Hao sio asset. Sasa huenda ulikutana na nyang'auz lakini wa-TZ wengi huwa ttunasema hivyo 'as an excuse'. The other issue is attitude. Naona watu kibao wanalalamika mkenya kwenye private sector kuwekwa CEO. How ridiculous is that? Unafikiri shareholders wa Vodacom wanataka kupoteza hela waweke zwazwa? Mbona aliyepita hamkulalamika? Alikuwa Mtanzania? Sisi tumemtoa CEO mwenye experience TTCL tumeweka banker kwa sababu ana masters na kuvaa shati la kijani

all Kenyans CEOs have bad track record in the companies they managed in Tanzania. Their mentality is always facing Nairobi (being submissive to authorities there) and nothing else. Our companies cant excel with those kind of people at helm. Magufull should even try to buy out Vodacom if they refuse to give up on their appointment.

That is called prejudice. Prejudice lacks logic. Kwa hiyo unataka mzungu? Is that what would make everyone in here happy?

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

Tanzanian

Ndio maana nakwambia logic imekosekana. Why Tanzanian? Kwa sababu ni competent au kwa sababu ni Mtanzania? You grouped Kenyans as non perfomers (although Safaricom is an example everyone wants to follow - lakini tuache hilo). So by saying Tanzanian, unasema Tanzanians ndio wanasifa ya competence kwenye Telecom industry? Whats the basis of your conclusion?

Niliwachukia wakenya lakini sikuwajua vzr tabia zao...nilikuja kuwatambua ushenzi wao walipoiua kwa makusudi kabisa precission air ili Kenya airways ishike hatamu.

Si serikali tu, bali hata wadau wa sekta binafsi tunapaswa kupigana vita ya kuichumi ili kusonga mbele.

Upepo wa biashara pia kwasasa umechafuka kidogo ataweka mambo sawa.

Ndo maana awali tulisema employers wananalamika pasipo kujua kazi ya Talent delevopment inamuhusu, the rest ni effort za mfanyakazi pale unapompa Mazingira ya kukua

Na huyu Katoka Kampuni zinazofanya hayo mambo.

She fits hapo bwanaaa mwache achape kazi na digrii yake.

Perhaps it's the high time your people changed their attitude towards Kenyan CEOs and embrace change without prejudice as pointed out earlier.
The most valuable asset of any organization is its staff. No mercurial CEO no matter how talented will turn around fortunes if the staff are not manageable to harness profits and set firm foundation for future sustainability.
Change your attitude and you'll see the returns otherwise even with a Martian or Mongolian CEO,you'll all continue lamenting !

I Think We are not Supposed to let our mind to be Negative when it comes to the big issues like this one. Vodacom is not individual owned lather its PLC. Senior appointment like MD's is not simple task as you think like Our National Boss do, its about to go higher Than Here They Are, So making A mistake in this time Especially in This Highest Appointment shall not Take a Chance at a Level To Worry Like Those Mentioned Kenyan Collapsed Company. I Think Lets Leave Them To do The Best That They Think They Can go, Then We Will be Referees At The Point They Shall Meet.

Adui ni 'victim mentality' ya watanzania.

CEO was Credit Suisse (benki kubwa Switzerland) anatoka Ivory Coast na kazaliwa Ivory Coast. Analipwa $9.9 millio kwa mwaka.

Alikuwa muafrika wa kwanza kuongoza FTSE 100 company (top 100) Uingereza (Prudential Insurance) kabla ya kwenda Credit Suisse.
