Executive Director for the Savannah Women Integrated Development Agency (SWIDA-GH), Hajia Alimah Sagito – Saeed, has said one cannot succeed in business or any sphere of life without having good relationship with others, especially in the particular field.
She said this in her opening speech at the maiden edition of the Movement for Youth Development’s (MYD) Conference for Capacity Building for Young Graduates at the National Youth Authority (NYA) Conference Hall in Tamale.
Hajia Alimah, who is the Guest Speaker for the occasion, mentioned attitude and respect for relationships as some key elements one must have in order to have a successful business, or to advance in any sphere of life.
“If you want to create wealth and you have issues of relationship, then you cannot create that wealth. You need to reorganize yourself in how you relate with people; how you network with people, what do you do as a person to make sure that your relationship is of value to what you want to do? What are the kind of people you relate with? The moment you get all that right, then whatever business you start or do, you can succeed. Because you’ll need people around you to sustain whatever business you want to do. You’ll need resources and sometimes you don’t have that resources but other people have it. You’ll need to relate well with them”.
She further implored young people to open up their minds to the numerous opportunities at their disposal rather than looking somewhere else and thinking there are no opportunities.
“If you’re the type that all you think is to be rich, think beyond just being rich. Think about creating wealth that will sustain you”. The Executive Director cautioned.
