I am an experienced leader with over 20 years of experience in Local Government and National Government. I have served as a Chief Executive Officer in three municipalities in Eswatini where I championed the conceptualization and implementation of transformation initiatives. In my current role as the CEO of the Municipal Council of Manzini, I am responsible for leading a team of over 250 employees in the delivery of quality municipal services to a population of over 120,000 daily. Since assuming this role, I have been able to transform the service delivery mechanisms of the municipality through the introduction of the 5-year Strategic Planning and Integrated Development Planning Framework which resulted in greater improvement in transparency, accountability, stakeholder participation, and development in the city.My strength is in setting, conceptualizing, and leading the implementation of strategy, as well as leading multi-functional teams. In addition, I am also a problem solver which has enabled me to strengthen the municipality’s weak governance systems through the establishment of; a Board Charter, Enterprise Risk Management Framework, Quality Management System, Performance Management System, Turn-Around Strategy, Human Resources Strategy, and several service delivery policies. I also conceptualized strategies for circumventing the fiscal challenges by introducing the Public Private Partnership(PPP) approach in delivering infrastructure development projects in the city. I also possess strong communication skills which enabled me to improve stakeholder participation in the development of the city through the establishment of the Customer Relationship Management Programme. This initiative resulted in the establishment of various stakeholder engagement platforms including; the Annual General Meeting, Annual Stakeholder Budget Submissions Meeting, Integrated Development Plan Submissions Meetings, production and dissemination of service delivery articles through traditional and digital media, and introduction of customer feedback platforms. Aided by my extensive knowledge and skills in city planning, I have led the development of Human Settlements, the development of Town Planning Schemes, and Local Economic Development Strategies.Under my leadership, the municipality has garnered several global and industry awards which include; Company of the Year Awards, Conformity Assessment Body of the Year awards, and Customer Service Excellence Awards.
