He reiterated that most companies are dying because of of the attitude of people put in place to manage the business.
According to him, it takes the Grace of God for persons like him to be successful business men in Ghana.
“ The truth is that CEOs cannot do the work alone, that is why they appoint managaers and employ staff to oversee the day-to-day running of the companies. But in this part of the world, it has become difficult to employ because some managers are not truthful. Some connive with staff to dupe and collapse very successful companies. No matter how much you pay some managers, they are selfish and greedy. They want to be like the owners of the companies,” Tobinco narrated.
Asked how he deals with greedy managers, Group Chair, Nana Samuel Amo Tobbin explained that aside the grace of God, it takes firmness, intense auditing and strict supervisory role to manage a business.
