„An entrepreneur’s spirit is a long journey that always needs to be monitored in order to stay on the right tract toward our goals. Without mentorship, we will never know and evaluate our own performance. I’m so glad to receive this mentoring support from Swiss Contact for another standard level of finance and accounting system setups. Thanks SEC for helping from the right side of the ecosystem recovery after the pandemics.”

„This was one of the best experiences of our lives, and we feel grateful for Mr. Willi Müller and Swisscontact SEC. His knowledge, hard work and ability to adapt to the local context were truly exemplary. He did not only teach us how to butcher and process a pig, but also how to grow a business and interact with clients.

We know we have a lot to improve and might not have met his high standards in terms of equipment. Yet, through his vision and patience, we were able to see how to grow and develop a meat processing company to international standards. His help and experience saved us a lot of time and money that would have been spent on learning by doing rather than just doing.“

The sessions were facilitated by Mr. Jan Erftemeijer and his presentation sessions were pictorial based and participants conducted practical sessions weekly, so it was very fruitful and highly beneficial to us.

We learned how the swiss health system is controlling the COVID, what strategies were effective over there and how they are managing the patient flow and treatment at hospital. We were also able to adapt these things in our setup like triaging COVID-19 patients, minimizing visitor flow, separating patients and other safety measures. We were able to manage our patients efficiently and make ourselves safe in this period.“

„Our teachers have started to implement the tips and tricks which they have learn from you at workshops. I am getting feedback from the students too. According to the students, their teachers have changed. Before they were not appreciated for their work, but now they do. Before classes were boring, but now interesting.“

„Your excellent teaching cooking skills and courteous personality has helped us tremendously through our improvement journey. Without your helpfulness and directness, the work of the kitchen staff would have been more challenging. We appreciate that you were strict and demanding and pointing out what we did wrong or were we had business improvement potential. We liked that you referred to your personal work-related situations.

We have learned so much from you and we look forward to learn more in the future. Thank you for being a remarkable teacher and we are very grateful that we had you as our teacher.“
