 LJSS Staff urged to improve performance

Staff of Law and Justice Secretariat were challenged to perform to high level in this changing world during their retreat recently.

Vice- President of PNG Human Resource Institute (PNGHRI), Professor Winston Jacob told the staff that the world today is changing rapidly and employees should perform to high levels to live up with the change.

"The world is moving so fast that you and I have to take stock of ourselves and see whether we are fitted in the position we are currently in today. Not the position for the person, but the person for the position," he said.

Professor Jacob said that employees must question themselves or to do an audit of themselves to see if they were fit to do their job well.

"We need to find out what you and I have to do to take forward steps and what should be done to improve your job performance and your country as a whole. You and I have to contribute and we need to create more good ideas to help ourselves," he added.

He also stated that the PNG's future was changing and theworld will shock many who did not have plans for their lives.

"Unimaginable things are currently happening today so you and I have to have a plan for the future if you don't have one now. Draw up a plan now because it's going to be too late if you leave it till tomorrow," Professor Jacob stressed.

Meanwhile Director of Law and Justice Sector, Mr Joe Kanekane told the staff that the sector needed staff support to make strategic decisions in the coming years.

"This is an organization that is growing and anybody who is not a liability will be dealt with accordingly. For us to be competent, we need people who are skilled and who are dedicated to their work," he said.
