Motivational Monday from Capital Strategies (K) Ltd: As a firm committed to excellence, innovation and growth of enterprises, we are keen to observe emerging trends in 2025. Here is a tip for entrepreneurs in 2025: There is a clear shift in consumer preferences especially towards living healthy. Consumers are now preferring healthier, organic and sustainably sourced foods. As demand grows, agri-businesses that embrace value-added products such as organic products and plant-based alternatives, are in the prime position to thrive in 2025. By innovating and adapting to this evolving trends, businesses can not only meet market demands, but also create lasting impacts and value in the industry. As a business, take advantage of this and thrive! Impact and change the world! Great week ahead. #Mondaymotivation #Innovation #Valueaddition #Business #Agribusiness #Valueaddition #Sustainability #Consumers #Commitment #Excellence

🌎 By 2035, Africa will have the youngest and largest workforce in the world. That's the future. It is not a challenge but a massive opportunity; Let's invest in education, skills and knowledge transfer. Let's prepare this workforce to thrive. With over 60% of it's population under the age of 25, Africa already boasts of the youngest population globally. Imagine by 2035! Quite an immense opportunity but also a big responsibility to us. A responsibility for businesses to rethink their approach to talent development. This creative image of Africa provides a stunning perspective. Africa's landmass is so vast that it can fit: -The USA -China -India -Most of Europe(including Germany, France, Italy, and the UK) -Plus parts of Japan and more What does this teach us? Africa is not just geographically massive, it is also brimming with untapped potential, resources and limitless opportunities. 💡Every company/business must have a robust talent development plan to tap into these opportunities💡. Those who recognize the size and significance of Africa-both geographically and economically, will unlock unparalleled opportunities. #Africa #Africarising #Youth #Talent #Economy #Opportunities #Untappedpotential #Resources #Workforce #Responsibility #Globaleconony

🔄THE ILO-SIYB PROGRAM AND THE BUSINESS GAME.🔄 The #SIYB programme is structured into four separate but related training packages; 1.Generate Your Business Idea (#GYB). 2.Start Your Business(#SYB). 3.Improve Your Business (#IYB), and 4.Expand Your Business (#EYB) The packages are designed to respond to the progressive stages of business development. ➡️ #Generate_Your_Business_Idea (#GYB) is intended for people who would like to start a business, and who, through the training, will develop a concrete and viable business idea ready for implementation. A GYB course typically lasts 2-3 days. ➡️ #Start_Your_Business (#SYB) is for potential entrepreneurs who want to start a business and already have a concrete business idea. The programme is a combination of training, field work and after-training support, and helps participants assess their readiness to start a business and to prepare a business plan and evaluate its viability. SYB courses are usually delivered in 5 days. ➡️ #Improve_Your_Business (#IYB) introduces already practising entrepreneurs to good principles of business management. Its six modules (marketing, costing, buying and stock control, record keeping, planning for your business, and people and productivity) can be taught individually or all combined in a full course. If the full course using all modules is delivered, its duration is approximately 7 days. ➡️ #Expand_Your_Business (#EYB) gives growth-oriented SMEs the practical tools for business growth, assisting them through training and non-training interventions with a focus on business strategy to expand their business. The main output from the training programme is a business growth plan, which includes chapters on marketing, operations, human resources, financial and strategic management. Chapters can also be used as stand-alone training and support products. If the full content of EYB is delivered, its duration is 1-2 weeks; like for the shorter courses above, the course delivery can be spread over a longer time span (e.g. 1-2 days per week over several months) if this is preferred. 🔷️The SYB and IYB packages also include the SIYB Business #Game, a practical simulation tool to help participants understand the realities of starting and running a business. 🔴The(#EYB_Business_Game )simulates an expanding business during training to help participants experience the impact of strategic decisions on their business operations. 🔵Apart from these “core” materials, available in English and in some 40 other languages, adaptations for specific sectors (e.g. agriculture; construction; tourism, Fashion), specific target groups (e.g. youth; low literacy populations; rural workers) or geographical settings (e.g. specific countries) also exist. #ILO #SIYB #business #game #entrepreneurship #capacitybuilding #impact #transformtheworld

Building a #business is like baking a cake. Even if you have all the right ingredients, you aren't going to get what you want if you do things out of order. I am thrilled to oversee business bootcamps that Capital Strategies Kenya Ltd is running in several parts of Nairobi, Nairobi environs and Central regions under the KCB Foundation(KCBF). Happy to join the Isiolo team today and looking forward to experience day 1 of the business bootcamp that will showcase the effectiveness of the ILO-SIYB Business Game in delivering lessons for businesses to learn. For this #youth who are being trained, I know there is no better time to get started working on the right steps in building business empires other than now. Because you can go into the new year ready to wreck shop and build that business that you really want. #entrepreneurship #business #bootcamps #skills #ILO #SIYB #game #module1 #KCB #capacitybuilding

Throughout last week, Capital Strategies Kenya Ltd, in collaboration with KCB Bank Group and KCB Foundation(KCBF), kicked off a transformative journey. Right from Kenya's capital Nairobi CBD, Nairobi environs and Central Kenya regions, we conducted Introductory Sessions and Training Needs Assessments(TNA) for #youth beneficiaries of the KCB Foundation's BDS program. This initial stage marks a pivotal step in #scaling the 2jiajiri project that is being implemented by KCB Foundation in partnership with the Mastercard Foundation. The main goal of this program is to create 43,000 new #jobs by offering #training and #mentorship to 25,000 MSMEs, with 6,000 gaining access to #financing to grow their #businesses. We will offer unique training to the #MSMEs by employing the innovative ILO-SIYB program model which will include the use of the #SIYB Business Game, a simulation of a normal business operation in a claas rooom. We are on-boarding to the program young #entrepreneurs from #Nairobi CBD, Nairobi environs and #CentralKenya who are engaged in #business and are aged between 18-35yrs. We believe #supporting local entrepreneurs goes beyond just mere transactions. It is an #investment in our communities and the future of our #economy. If you are interested and you in the above mentioned category, you can get in touch. #Entrepreneurship #Training #Mentorship #Jobs #Jobscreation #MSMEs #Business #Economy #Youth #Investment #Transformation #Impact #SIYB #ILO
