#HappeningNow Meeting with the @TradePortalRw Team, exchanging experiences and strategies to the approach of simplifying trade processes. Lots to learn from the two #EAC Countries of KE & RW @giz_gmbh @KenTrade_G2B #SimplificationWorks #TradeFacilitation

#EarlierToday Formulating & deliberating on tasks to facilitate the adoption & implementation of the proposed simplification measures by the County Director of Fisheries, in the export of fish! #SimplificationWorks #TradeFacilitation #InfoTradeKE @bizfacilitation @KenTrade_G2B

An aspect of highly effective teams is that they seek (healthy) conflict. It allows them to grow, learn and be the best version of themselves. #FridayQuotes #SimplificationWorks #SimplificationOfficers

Ongoing engagements between @KenTrade_G2B and AFA Coffee Directorate to review and further simplify the export of coffee procedures captured on https://t.co/6mtsIjycwc #TradeFacilitation #SimplificationWorks @bizfacilitation

There is no such thing as being able to predict the future, near & far. Time for all of us to accept uncertainty and be comfortable changing plans continuously. #FridayQuotes #SimplificationWorks #SimplificationOfficers

For every problem there are many possible solutions, there is no value in discussing right or wrong. Don't stick to "mine is best" discussions, start exploring others and learn. There is a lot more value in acquiring more knowledge. #SimplificationWorks #Mindset

Meeting with the Rwanda Inspectorate, Competition & Consumer Protection Authority (RICA) @InspectorateRw to exchange best practices in facilitating exports #TradeFacilitation #SimplificationWorks @KenTrade_G2B @giz_gmbh

Why do so many assume that Agile is for the Development organisation only? #FridayQuotes #SimplificationWorks #SimplificationOfficers

It's been an extremely exciting & engaging 3 days in #Naivasha analyzing #export procedures for #tea & #coffee identifying further areas of simplification. The fruitful discussions led to identification of measures to be implemented @eacmarkup @ITCnews #SimplificationWorks

Don't feel pressured to cut corners, they'll backfire on you. Take the time to build things right and enjoy long term pleasure in changing code. #SimplificationOfficers #SimplificationWorks #TechnicalExcellenceMatters

Love the lingo used in the book "Software Engineering at Google" --> The Beyonce Rule. Even though they take engineering seriously, very seriously and have strict rules they do put "play" into work. (song: Single Ladies) #FridayQuotes #SimplificationWorks #SimplificationOfficers
