Step Up is six and throughout the month of July, we will be celebrating the great work this young team has accomplished in just a short amount of time. Today, we asked a few members of our family just how they would describe Step Up Nigeria using only 6 words and here is what they said. You too can join in the fun by dropping your description in the comment section. #stepupat6 #anniversaryweek #happysixyears #sixforsix

Emelia Oware, a client, is a true pioneer developing a progressive school in Accra, Ghana. Her program focus is to “develop individual's capabilities... to move away from the status quo whilst building resilience to be changemakers and/or problem solvers. This is what Africa needs to transform our world." Today we walked through getting the right team together. You can't do this later. This is the ground they will walk on in all they do going forward. She said, "I never knew to think of these things. You are truly a blessing Joanna." Focusing on deeper, core work now will make all the difference in the trajectory in transforming lives.

?? What I’ve learnt about working with multicultural teams ?? The work of a development professional is dynamic- one day you are at a high level conference in South Africa and the next week you are meeting with community groups and kinsmen in the rural parts of South East Nigeria. Consistently working with diverse teams from various backgrounds is the norm. Here’s how I make it work: 1. Find a Common Language: that everyone can communicate with ease. Sometimes I speak pidgin in rural areas in Nigeria and English in international settings 2. Embrace Diversity: Avoid cultural bias and appreciate the richness different backgrounds bring. 3. Educate on Cultural Sensitivity:This reduces misunderstandings and helps team members navigate cultural differences. 4. Avoid Stereotypes: Focus on individuals, not assumptions. 5. Create a Safe Space: Ensure clear expectations and open, respectful communication for all. If you intend to build a career in international development then investing in trainings on cultural intelligence is a must! ?? Let’s connect and share insights on growing in the development sector! #DevelopmentProfessional #CulturalIntelligence #DiversityAndInclusion #CareerGrowth #InternationalDevelopment #projectsgirl #day11of40

Unlocking Ghana's Potential: Decoding Group Dynamics for a Better Nation Ghana is renowned for its peaceful coexistence among people of diverse ethnic backgrounds. However, this harmony hasn't translated into significant achievements for the nation. Despite living together seemingly well, Ghanaians struggle to work together effectively towards common goals, resulting in underperformance and low productivity across various sectors. Inner conflicts like backbiting and the formation of divisive cliques contribute to this challenge. Understanding and addressing these issues require delving into group dynamics—the social processes governing how people interact within groups. Key questions arise: Is the group's interpersonal dynamic conducive to goal attainment? Does the group's structure and size support both task accomplishment and maintaining cohesion? How do formal and informal power dynamics influence decision-making and consensus-building? Does the collective makeup of individuals foster a productive culture? Examining these factors helps us comprehend and enhance group effectiveness. As someone deeply committed to fostering teamwork and productivity, I embark on a journey to shed light on the significance of group dynamics for Ghanaians. Together, we'll explore the stages of group development and how individuals can contribute to building stronger teams. Join me on this enlightening expedition towards creating a better Ghana across societal, business, and institutional realms. I invite you to join me and my team as we offer coaching sessions to empower your group or staff with these insights. Let's embark on this journey together, towards enhanced performance and productivity.
