Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>The Permanent Secretary to the President, Emma Pelo etletse, has excoriated public servants for their poor work ethic and attitudes in the workplace and calledthem to up their game because Batswana are not happy with their non-delivery.<\/b><\/p>\n

Addressing senior public servants at a Performance Management Retreat of the Ministry of State President, Peloetletse said there is need for target-based interventions to measure progress and success and result-oriented performance based and customer-focused systems of values in the workplace. \u201cAs a civil servant, you must strive to leave a legacy to your name,\u201d she said. \u201cBatswana are unhappy with the public service\u2019s non-delivery and it is you Permanent Secretaries who can change this perception.\u201d<\/p>\n

To that end, Peloetletse challenged Permanent Secretaries as heads of ministries to tighten the ropes to ensure that service delivery and proper attitudes in the workplace are prioritised. The PSP further called for strategic ways of doing business in the post-COVID period because the pandemic has done a lot of harm to the way the government has been doing business.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the retreat was to align rationalisation of the public service implementation machinery to the national transformation agenda in order to ensure smooth transition to new mandates.<\/p>\n

For this to be realised, Peloetletse said unity and client-centred approaches of doing business to support the country\u2019s goal of becoming a high-income country economy are necessary.<\/p>\n

The retreat was themed Reclaiming Implementation Excellence and was aimed at creating a shared understanding of the goals of the government rationalization, among other aims.<\/p>\n
