Former Ghana Post Managing Director, Bice Osei Kuffour, widely known as Obour, has spoken about his tenure at the state-run postal service.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen program, he highlighted the strides the company made during his leadership. According to him, he left Ghana Post in a strong position, with a solid foundation that only required effective leadership and continuity to maintain its achievements.
“I left Ghana Post at its highest level. It was a healthy organization, and it requires continuity with the right skills to keep moving forward” he said.
Obour emphasized that sustaining the progress of Ghana Post required consistent leadership and strategic direction, as the company had reached a stage where stability was crucial for its continued growth.
He also highlighted one of his key initiatives—introducing long service awards to recognize employees who had dedicated over five years to the organization.
“When I took over as the MD, there was a legacy debt, and we worked hard to clear some of those arrears. Some employees had been at Ghana Post for 15 to 18 years, so we promoted many of them in 2023 to recognize their long service. We also promoted people who had served 10 and 5 years.”
Obour pointed out that these incentives played a vital role in uplifting staff morale and fostering a sense of motivation within the workforce.
He acknowledged that while challenges such as salary constraints existed, employees appreciated the positive changes and initiatives introduced under his leadership.
“We introduced a transport allowance, and the workers were happy. Though the salaries weren’t perfect, they appreciated the efforts we made on their behalf.”
“The post office is now more competitive than before. We were able to improve our transportation network, which made a significant difference in service delivery” he noted.
Looking back on his tenure, Obour expressed confidence in the strides made during his leadership.
“Many initiatives were introduced, and I believe I did well during my time at Ghana Post,” he said. “There has been massive growth, and if this progress continues, the post office will become a great institution.”
A few weeks ago, Obour stepped down as Managing Director of Ghana Post, closing a chapter marked by transformation and progress at the state-owned postal company.
