With over a decade of experience in leadership and administrative roles, I am a Certified Administrative Professional affiliated with the American Society of Administrative Professionals-USA and the Chartered Institute of Administrators and Management Consultants-Ghana. My expertise uniquely blends comprehensive administrative skills with a people-centric approach, ensuring effective and empathetic management.
In my professional journey, I have evolved beyond traditional administrative duties to become a trusted Business Partner, offering valuable insights and actionable strategies. As Chief of Staff, I have built a reputation for reliability and depth of institutional knowledge, serving as the primary point of contact for information exchange. My role as Project Manager has seen me successfully lead projects from inception to completion. At the same time, as an Assistant, I have adeptly managed schedules and acted as the gatekeeper to ensure smooth operations.
My career at the University of Cape Coast commenced in January 2013 as a Senior Administrative Assistant in the Integrated Payroll & Personnel Database Unit of the then Division of Human Resource. This foundational role, which I held until February 2016, prepared me for subsequent positions within the Training and Development Section of the Directorate of Human Resource. From February 2016 to September 2018, I excelled as a Senior Administrative Assistant, and from October 2018 to January 2023, I served as a Principal Administrative Assistant, supporting the university's human resource development initiatives and honing my skills in organisational management, leadership, and strategic planning.
In February 2023, I embraced a new challenge as Principal Administrative Assistant within the Students' Support Services Unit at the College of Distance Education. This role, which I held until June 2024, deepened my understanding of student needs and underscored the importance of efficient administrative support in fostering a conducive learning environment. Currently, as a Junior Assistant Registrar, I assume key delegated roles from the Registrar, contributing to the ongoing success and growth of our institution.
Academically, I am dedicated to enhancing my understanding of human behaviour in organisational contexts. My recent study on relational leadership and employee creativity, published in the Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Insights, demonstrates my commitment to driving innovation through effective leadership practices.
Beyond my professional commitments, I am actively engaged in community service, reflecting my commitment to making a positive impact both within and outside the workplace.
My career is driven by an unwavering commitment to excellence and a passion for empowering others. I look forward to leveraging my expertise to help leaders thrive and lead with clarity and confidence.
