Stakeholders in Anambra state have identified observance to business ethics, sustainability plans, training and focus as foundation for business growth.
The stakeholders, who disclosed this at 2024 business ethics and sustainability summit organised in Awka by Bon Hotels Smith City Awka, Anambra state, urged entrepreneurs to be truthful, while making fidelity, credibility and rebranding their watchdogs.
According to them, businesses mostly collapse when founders lacked legitimacy, were inconsistent, failed to keep to promises or make plans for sustenance of the enterprise even after their deaths.
Speaking at the occasion, a realtor, Mr Chisom Nwafor charged entrepreneurs to identify, focus to their targets, seek training, exposures and other opportunities for developments and expansion of scope of their businesses.
Another speaker and entrepreneur, Mr Jude Obuekwe, who identified leadership as among the challenges crippling the country’s economy, insisted that entrepreneurs should always utilise their positions to create and commercialise values so as to gain and impact lives positively.
However, a pharmacist from Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Dr Edith Anyankwo urged business owners to refrain from stress and take control of their mental health for what she described as pathway for healthy living, wealth creation and management.
Earlier, the General Manager, Bon Hotels Smith City, Awka, Mr Anthony Zuokemefa explained that the summit was aimed at exposing the youth to leverage technology and innovation for entrepreneurship success, while the company’s Sales/Marketing Manager, Comrade Anaegbunam Arinze added that it would also equip the younger generation with necessary skills to succeed in life.
