In yesterday’s session with @_360Mentor, I referred to 10 tips on building a successful career from Justice Julia Sebutinde that I landed on in 2012 and found beneficial. Here is an abridged thread for you #360Mentor
1. Be visionary: Have a clear vision of what you want to do with your life. Every successful career begins with a personal decision of what you want to be and the goals you want to achieve. Without a vision, you will easily drift through life without happiness. #360Mentor
2. Be resourceful: Make the most of the opportunities that life gives you. Take time to gather all the skills, knowledge, and experience in any position. This often entails spending several years in the same line of work. Remember, a rolling stone never gathers moss! #360Mentor

@_360Mentor Firs, please leave @ManUtd alone. Peter Drury sent me to bed last night with these words, “Glory days are old, trophies are old, best players are old, the coach is old…and the stadium is Old Trafford.” They are still ringing in my ears. #360Mentor
@_360Mentor @ManUtd Now let’s talk economics. Now that H.E the President has reopened the economy, we (@mofpedU) have a plan to support recovery of households, businesses and economy. The plan includes ongoing fiscal and monetary stimuli as well as new interventions as outlined below. /1 #360Mentor
@_360Mentor @ManUtd @mofpedU Intervention # 1: implementation of the Parish Development Model to support the 39% of Ugandan households still in subsistence to join the monetized economy. Each of the 10,058 parishes will receive UGX 100m (planning figure, since parishes are not homogeneous). #360Mentor

According to @Hbamulinde, the 3 opportunities in Ug r in
1. Oil and Gas
The industry is big, will attract lots of foreign investment(expatriates) & will require lots of manual labour as well.
This creates demand for several services eg food, accommodation, travel etc

and @Comrade_Otoa host

There is a mindset change in several people that they are more than where they work. This is one of the reasons for the great resignation where people are leaving jobs bse their eyes are open to what they can achieve without being in a specific place or bound by time.
@TioKauma
Time is ripe for employers to change the work dynamics(improved EVPs) bse of the impact of the pandemic and the increasing Work From Home(WFH) and flexibility in hours.
Organisations that don't align risk losing talent to organisations that are applying or 2 do their own stuff.

#360Mentor discussions on career always have a new vibe because the experiences are as diverse as the people you listen to on the topic.
@J_Nkiriki,a PHD fellow joins @rkabushenga and
@Comrade_Otoa to speak about shaping careers.
Come along! twitter.com/i/spaces/1OwGW…
@J_Nkiriki acknowledges that she is where she is because she took the counsel of one of her cousins that her undergrad degree should not limit her.
She also had mentors from her networks that enabled her gain insight from females that were in the same field.
#360Mentor
Her first experience with rejection was from applying with the mindset that she could learn even when she did not have the requirements, something that many men do but females shun. That didn't deter her but rather propelled it, even refining her resume to increase her chances.

@AgaSekalala, MD of UgaChick clarifies family businesses as one where at least 2 or more family members are involved in the ownership(at the start) and the management of the business. Doesn't count if you're employees or workers in the business.
#360Mentor
The common family businesses in Africa are:
1. Husband and wife(1 is involved in raising capital and the other the operations)
2. 2 Brothers
3. Cousins who have grown up,know each other and understand each other however in the academic sense is a normal partnership
#360Mentor
On vision bearers for family businesses being patriarchal, @AgaSekalala confirms it is common place where a founder established a biz for different reasons including adversity. This founder knows the problem they are trying to solve/opportunity they are trying to grab

Come find out on this space👇 hosted by @rkabushenga and @Comrade_Otoa

I can still remember @ArapapabySanta strutting elegantly when she would visit her sister Ms.Jane who was an art teacher at school in UMSSN. We would stare in awe.
Seeing her scale the heights in fashion years later, many of us were not surprised.

#360Mentor
As a refugee in South Sudan, with her family and mother, @ArapapabySanta reflects on a season of unrest with gun shots,bombs, lots of uncertainty and being fed by the UN.

Things got tough for her mum who handed her over to her Grandpa who unfortunately passed on.

Many of us have heard about BNI however may have some questions around what they do and who they are, the Country Director of BNI @DNKibuuka is on to share about the power of effective networking though BNI.
@rkabushenga @Comrade_Otoa

twitter.com/i/spaces/1YpKk…
@DNKibuuka , uses an analogy from a book by Adam Grant "Give and Take- Why Helping Others Drives Our Success" in which he categories people as givers, matchers and takers.
Givers burn out, matchers survive and takers are eventually thrown out.

#360Mentor
@DNKibuuka explains that @BNI_official_pg operates on the principal that if there are more givers, then everyone benefits.

In Networks, what value are you bringing? What are you giving?
She says you cannot be the one always taking. Always give something of value

Thank you for the awesome session on mental health @GraceLinda21 on the #360Mentor by @rkabushenga and @Comrade_Otoa. You really spoke to me when you talked about grief. We don't talk about it enough and from experience I would advise anyone overwhelmed by grief to seek help.
My journey with grief began last year in November when I lost my mother. For anyone that knows me really well, my mother was my closest friend. She was my best greatest inspiration, my everything and I never ever imagined life without her.
How she was passed was so sudden. One week she was okay and the next week-each and every day she kept withering away. It took a day for her to stop talking, then another to stop walking and another to stop breathing on her own and I watched it all to the end.

While part of a team in Rwanda with Ericsson and working on smart cities, @edgarkasenene realized that 4G had started to grow and the value of data had started to drop because it was more available.
#360Mentor
Consumption of data has also gone up and people have started looking for cheaper internet options.

@edgarkasenene volunteered for a role called Internet of Things(IOT)and went on an executive programme, getting obsessed with changing the way of work from the old to the new.
