As a part of my capstone unit in my degree in Commerce, we had the opportunity to collaborate with fellow Undergraduate students completing their Science Capstone unit. My team provided consultation on their project ‘Black Soldier fly Larvae’. We provided them with a document which detailed how the project could become a successful operation that achieved its UN SDG goal of ‘Responsible Production & Consumption’. We were able to provide this through collaborative problem solving and utilising the mixed majors of our group, being Economics, Accounting, International Business, HR, Marketing Management and Marketing & Consumer Insights. Our document outlines detailed logistical suggestions and concerns, necessary market research, project financials and dynamics as well as necessary stakeholders to involve. Through my studies in Economics, I was able to provide financial suggestions such as exiting a pilot stage quickly to achieve maximum efficiency in sourcing goods to make the project as cost-effective as possible. I also reviewed this project from its impact on the broader market, suggesting its costs will likely be incurred by the government and a positive cost-benefit analysis will encourage them to fund this project. Whilst we used our skills to consult a project on its potential profitability we also helped them achieve their desired sustainability through an ethical means, reaching their UN SDG goal. #MqBComCapstone

For kids to read, you must set the stage for them. You must prepare and expose them to sounds. This exposure brings about recognition. Recognition in turn brings about blending. Blending leads to reading. Reading can happen so fast because the background has been laid. No child should be deprived of these processes that can make or turn them into better readers.

Myths about ICAN Prizes As a young, eager secondary school leaver, I anticipated earning my professional charter even before completing my B.Sc. which I did😎😎 The stories I have heard of #ican exams were enough to make anyone shiver, especially seeing how some of my classmates practically worshipped the ICAN altar 😂 My first day in ATS 1 class was a revelation! Was this really what everyone was stressing over? Let me share my thought pattern. 😂 I was a total economics #nerd back in secondary school, no one could rival my #passion for it. I practically had a library of economics textbooks! #Accounting was a breeze too, thanks to three years of personally breaking down concepts bit by bit ( SS1-SS3, as I was the only student). And English? Come on, what's the fuss about? Don't we all speak English?😂 Business law was the only unfamiliar territory, but even that became a fascination with top-notch tutors that I had. These were supposed to be my #winning formulas, right? Well, the joke was on me! I didn't burn the midnight oil like my peers. Who needs to burn the midnight oil when you've got #skills, right? But oh, how wrong I was! How could I expect to outrun those equally #skilled peers burning the #midnightoil? Did I think someone who mastered past questions wouldn't have the upper hand come #exam day? It was a humbling realization. So, here's the deal: whether you're in the elementary or professional stage in the #ICAN game, don't #overestimate yourself. Put in the sweat equal to reap the rewards. Don't just sit back and expect success to fall into your lap, that only happens in fairy tales. And trust me, 😕it's entirely possible to study your heart out, burn that midnight oil, and still come up short on the #ICAN #prize. But take heart! Even if the top spot eludes you, high scores are nothing to scoff at. So, chin up, my friend! You might just get a #prize or two along the way this diet. And if not, well, those stellar scores are worth bragging about, aren't they? 😉 Flaunt those impressive scores! Share your ICAN prize thoughts with me in the comment section. Have a good day.

'Jiamini' was what my Dear Father told me the first day I walked into Strathmore University for my interview. The pride and hope in his eyes gave me a push on, 'Yes, I can do this'.  Then I got in, and he has always repeated it. Over and over again. He understands the power of repetition in communication. Emphasis some would think, but I know it's a motto and a mantra for me.  I'm in my final year, and I have to remind myself what I need for my brand is confidence. As my father would say to me, 'Jiamini'. A journey that only a few can relate to, only a few can understand has been molding a personal brand. I'm not quite perfect to give one answer on what I advocate for, but I have it narrowed down. It all starts here. Embarking on the path to higher education can be an exhilarating yet nerve-wracking experience. I had to learn a few things like acknowledging and celebrating my achievements, no matter how small they may seem. Completing assignments, acing exams, or making new friends are all victories worth recognizing. By celebrating these moments, it reinforced my self-assurance and motivation. I also had to recognize that I'm not alone on this journey. Universities offer a plethora of resources, including academic advisors, professors, tutoring services, and student organizations which I could use to my advantage. Entering university is an exciting journey filled with opportunities for growth, learning, and self-discovery. Building and maintaining confidence throughout this experience has empowered me to make the most of my time in higher education and to tell a story of my bold personal brand.

An important piece. At this moment in higher education, the slim margins and the unprecedented external forces weighing on small private institutions can create a fear laden environment, which I’d argue is the opposite of what we need to think innovatively. Plenty of take aways for all constituencies in this article. Thanks to my friend Gregor Thuswaldner for initially posting.

My course dissertation wasn’t 100% perfect 🫣 And I’m learning to be ok with it, seeing it as a work in progress. Why am I telling you this? Because among all the great successes we proudly (and rightfully so) post on here, there are always failures and disappointments which we hide from view. The more we hide, the more we perpetuate the false narrative that only wins and successes are worth sharing and celebrating. Let’s not tell porkies 🤥 to the bright eyed graduates at the cusp of their careers. Let’s create a safe and authentic space for them (and us) to learn, grow, get it wrong and course-correct. Let’s be honest.
