The morning rush hour was bad, very bad. I have been in
Lagos all my life and I have seen traffic gridlock but that misty July
Wednesday morning was simply soul wrenching. Not to say being stuck in
traffic
wasn’t my fault, you know what they say about giving excuses; especially
if you
are a corporate staff of a time-conscious organisation and you happen to
have an
appointment with the boss at 9:00 am of the same morning.
So, there I was stuck in traffic by 7:15am along Ikorodu
road heading to Victoria Island. “My gosh…
Gordon will kill me” I remember blurting out those over 20 times that morning. Mr. Gordon Kirchowsky is the Head of Operations of our multinational company with a branch in Victoria Island Lagos, Nigeria-My boss and I am the Human Resource Manager who is to make a power point presentation to Mr. G. Kirchowsky on the workforce restructuring that we had only recently concluded at the organisation.
The issues I was to present bordered on: Who was to do what…The experience, qualification and training required and I had just 15mins of the 1hour 30 minutes of the morning session to do that.
