Managing in Haiti


Haitian workers can be good at dealing with customers\clients and know what move in their market. But they make poor managers that lack accountability requiring constant supervision and training. Not good for an away entrepreneur. Culture and subsistence living have a lot to do with it. Education level does not matter.
That preponderance-to-failure mind set is fostered by NGOs working in country on poverty relief and the Diaspora. They (NGOs) provide the masses with subsistence capital to eat for a day but not with the knowledge, training and capital necessary to think and grow big. Yet, if they did provide that, their raison d'etre in country will be moot eventually.
Government is also at fault by not implementing budgetary self reliance, import reductions, protection and encouragement of domestic productions, corruption control, and restoring Haitian pride through real socio-economic growth. All of the above could encourage Haitians to remain in country and participate in her development; rather than looking for a visa by any necessary means.
The lack of accountability is shocking to someone trained abroad but prevalent in country. Long training period, enforced by strict guidelines and accountability are required in order to succeed in country.
