The President of McOttley Holdings, Richard Dugan, has stated that the key to organizational growth is strategic mentorship.<\/p>\n
Mr. Dugan was speaking in an interview after he was awarded as the Manager of the year<\/strong> at Prime Business Destination forum and awards organized by European Business Assembly in Germany.<\/p>\n At the award ceremony, McOttley Capital was also awarded the prestigious Best Enterprise Award of the year<\/strong> for their strong position in the national market, the company\u2019s status in the international ratings, the utilization of modern management technologies, high staff qualification levels and a successful marketing strategy.<\/p>\n Mr. Dugan stated that an important element that can serve as a catalyst for organizational growth is the adoption of formalized corporate mentorship programme that focuses on enhancing the capacity of employees, giving them responsibility, empowering them to take decisions and holding them accountable for those decisions.<\/p>\n The decision to enhance the capacity of employees must be part of a well-designed mentorship programme where experienced mentors are identified within the corporate environment to lead less experienced employees.<\/p>\n \u201cOur approach at McOttley is simple; identify talents and give them responsibilities to execute higher order tasks, monitor them for a while, if we realize they are struggling with the tasks, a more experienced member of staff is brought in to lead the team for a maximum of 6 months so they can serve as mentors to the young leaders,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n Mr. Dugan also advised that even though it\u2019s critical for entrepreneurs to understand and monitor every facet of their business operations, they should not focus on being micro-managers but they should bring in expertise and also deploy systems and structures that ensure efficiency and accountability.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are a Holding Company with three subsidiaries operating under the McOttley brand and we have ensured that each strategic business unit is led by experts who are empowered to take decisions but are also ultimately responsible and accountable for those decisions,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n McOttley Holdings Limited is an award winning holding company with subsidiaries namely McOttley Capital, McOttley Money Lending and McOttley Properties.<\/p>\n In 2016, McOttley Capital was named Ghana\u2019s Best Growing Investment Bank in addition to being named the Best Boutique Investment Bank by Capital Finance International (CFI).<\/p>\n McOttley Capital focuses on Fund Management, Asset Finance, Corporate Finance, Pension Funds Management, Venture Capital Financing, Private Equity Management and Investment Advisory Services aimed at servicing the short to long term investment needs of clients whilst McOttley Money Lending focuses on providing timely loans to SMEs through simplified and fluid loan management processes.<\/p>\n McOttley Properties one of the subsidiaries of the Group focuses on the development of contemporary and cost effective properties, mainly Villas and smaller middle to high-end homes, commercial fully serviced offices for long and short rental.<\/p>\n It also conducts Property valuation, Mortgage Finance advisory service, Real Estate project Management and Property Management.<\/p>\n –<\/p>\n Source:\u00a0McOttley Capital<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The President of McOttley Holdings, Richard Dugan, has stated that the key to organizational growth is strategic mentorship.
