Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA) has honored former Executive Director of the Advertising Association of Ghana (AAG), Francis Dadzie, for his outstanding achievements and dedication to the advancement of the advertising industry.<\/b><\/p>\n

He received the honour at the 7th edition of the UPSA Classic Awards which took place last Saturday (May 18).<\/p>\n

The UPSA Classic Awards is an annual campus-based awards gala organised to honour distinguished students and individuals who have excelled in their fields of work.<\/p>\n

Citation<\/b><\/p>\n

A citation presented in his honour stated that \u201cMr Dadzie, throughout the years, had dedicated unwavering commitment and stood as a beacon of inspiration and transformation within Ghana\u2019s business landscape.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Executive Director of the AAG since 1999, it said \u201cDadzie epitomised leadership, fostered innovation, and drove positive change in the industry. Under his stewardship, the AAG has undergone a remarkable metamorphosis, evolving from a trade association to a professional body of distinction.\u201d<\/p>\n

The citation also said \u201cMr Dadzie, who is currently the President of the UPSA Global Alumni, continued to inspire and empower future leaders by spearheading initiatives such as the UPSA Police Station project, aimed at ensuring the safety and security of students.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn celebration of his unparalleled achievements and enduring legacy, we extend our heartfelt appreciation for his visionary leadership, exemplary service, and unwavering commitment to excellence. His contributions have not only enriched Ghana\u2019s advertising industry but have also inspired countless individuals to strive for greatness and make a lasting impact in the world,\u201d the citation read.<\/p>\n

Advice<\/b><\/p>\n

Mr Dadzie, after receiving his award, expressed his gratitude to the student body for recognising his effort and the impact he had made in the various positions he served.<\/p>\n

He said during his time in the school, which was then Institute of Professional Studies (IPS), it wasn\u2019t developed as it is now but most of his colleagues were able to excel.<\/p>\n

He, therefore, advised the students to take their academic work seriously and remain disciplined in order for them to achieve greatness.<\/p>\n

He also urged the student leadership to exhibit honesty and integrity in all their endeavors.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have alumni following me today because I exhibited leadership with honesty and integrity when I was a student leader. They don\u2019t hesitate when I tell them to make contributions because they know that it will be accounted for,\u201d Mr Dadzie said.<\/p>\n
