BHC IMPLORED TO ENTRENCH HIGH PERFORMANCE CULTURE

The Honorable Minister of Transport and Public Works has implored the BHC Board and Management teams to entrench a culture of high performance in the Corporation, saying they must view challenges to service delivery as an opportunity for coming up with solutions. 
During a half day courtesy call on the two governance bodies Molale said individual employees’ output must have a bearing on the overall performance of the Ministry and this can only show if people embraced a value system of altruistic service. 
“Our 2036 dream isn’t a baseless dream looking at where we have come from as a nation,” Molale said, urging the BHC Board and Leadership to ensure that this historical account must be brought into the BHC.
The eloquent Minister Molale, seen by many as an encyclopedia of public service says, “having understood the imperative of strategic planning, leaders must remember to sustain focus.” He attributed his personal growth from starting off as an officer to being a Minister to such an ability to focus and seeing self not as a worker but a server. He further said public attitude and perceptions emerge as a result of an entity’s failure to response to issues. 
With an impressive 42 years in public service, Minister Molale reiterated the need for leaders to be learner before they are leaders. The Acting BHC Board Chairman, Moemedi Gabana had earlier highlighted to the Minister the need for consider policy imperatives on the need for Government agencies to consider releasing pool houses to their employees for outright purchase.
“This and the need to review the decision on the repossessed land initially secured for the construction of the BHC Head Office at the CBD would be factors accelerating our aspirations as we pursue our 2017-2023 strategic plan.” Gabana says the strategic plan entails building well over 12000 housing units during the period under review and he said BHC is right on the road to success. 
The courtesy visit on the Board and Management served as opportunity for the Minster to appreciate the performance of the Corporation as well as to interface, where possible with some employees. 
In his closing remarks, the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Transport and Public Works Mr. Kgomotso Abi reiterated the need for the leaders to embrace the nation’s founding value system.
“We used to sing the national anthem and say the Lord’s prayer in our morning assembly at school,” Abi said emphasizing that those are basic tenets of a corruption free mindset.
