Why do they always put such requirements like 10 years experience in Snr Management in Civil Service and so on? First of all, most of the recent technological developments we are seeing have taken place within less than 10 years....many who were acclimatizing to it were probablty just getting started in their jobs. The CEO of Facebook is 29 and has only about 10 years experience from startup to now. Whatsapp, Twitter, Youtube have also come up within that time frame, We must understand that some jobs call for vision, tech savvyness and ability to see great ideas from the get go. When guys like James Mworia - CEO - Centum at 32 now 37, Rene Meza, CEO Airtel Kenya at 31, Nyakeria, NIC Securities CEO at 27, Gachao Kiuna CEO TransCentury at 31 and so on have been entrusted with much bigger entities than this Konza, we really need to get out of this civil servant mentality of sijui 10 years experience in senior management in government,....experience doing what? Here we want to run with whizzkids coming out of Chiroma and Jkuat, Strath and eMobilis, green energy solutions that kina GE are bringing, Biotechnology, Genetics science, Forensics and so on,where the person at the top can engage at these levels. Tuwache mediocrity, open up this post to all Kenyans at home and abroad to apply, let the best win!! My two cents.
