Wilson Atta Krofah, President of the Ghana National Chamber of Commerce and Industry, has charged the country’s entrepreneurs to embrace human capital development programmes and strategies to help promote business growth.
“Entrepreneurs need to take the opportunities offered by training workshops to enhance their management capacities and improve on their businesses,” he said.
He made this call at the 557th monthly meeting of the Greater Accra Regional branch of the Chamber.
He urged small business operators to set aside some investment package for capacity building, as well as their employees, to help build their businesses.
Mr. Krofah observed that Ghanaian businesses, instead of directing their investment to human capital development, rather spend their monies on funerals and other social ventures.
The Chamber is doing all it can to improve on its members capacity to help grow small businesses in the country, Nana Appiagyei Dankawoso, Chairman of the Greater Accra Regional branch of the Chamber explained.
He said it would be of no use for anyone to have the necessary resources but lack the managerial skills to put them into effective and profitable use.
"It is very important for us as business people to have knowledge of financial management and record-keeping to sustain and grow our businesses," he added.
He therefore advised entrepreneurs to avail themselves for training workshops organised by the chamber, and pay their dues regularly to enable the chamber to honour its obligations satisfactorily.
