TanzaniaInvest had the pleasure of interviewing Deogratius Kilawe, Managing Director of Excel Management and Outsourcing, a company offering a comprehensive range of HR, Investments and Corporate Branding advisory services in Tanzania.
Mr Deogratius Kilawe talks about the state of human capital market in Tanzania and discusses the role of his company in its development.
TanzaniaInvest (TI): Can you brief us about Excel Management and Outsourcing? Why and when did you start in Tanzania?
Deogratius Kilawe (DK): Around 2012, we identified a gap in human capital skills and competence in Africa. This is why we decided to form Excel Management and Outsourcing. Till date, we have trained over 140,000 people to be best skilled, in South Africa, Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania.
TI: What is your take about the human capital market of Tanzania?
DK: Tanzania used to be a socialist economy until it opened to capitalism in the mid ‘80s. In the quest for liberalization, extensive know-how was needed.
Most of the universities used to enroll lecturers lacking experience in the private sector, but nowadays, they outsource part-time lecturers who have worked in the private sector.
