“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
It was organised against the background
that on the 25th September, 2015, African
Countries joined the rest of the member states
of United Nations and adopted an ambitious
agenda to attain Sustainable Development
Goals the successful implementation of any
development Agenda will however, will require
Effective, Professional, Efficient, Accountable, Innovative and People Focused Public Sector
institutions and that the task of developing
the required Public Sector competences for
implementation of the Agenda 2030 and 2063
lies squarely with Human Resource Managers.
Human Resource Managers, therefore, need to
be conversant with the Agenda and understand
the implications on competence requirements
for the Public Service.
The 2018 Conference was hosted by the Uganda
Public Service Human Resource Managers’
Network (UPS-HRM net) the Ugandan Local
Chapter of the APS-HRMnet, supported by the
Ministry of Public Service of Uganda and was
attended by over 400 delegates. The Delegates
were from twenty-two (22) countries including
Benin; Burundi; Central African Republic;
Democratic Republic of Congo; Cameroon;
Egypt; Ethiopia; Ghana; Ivory Coast; Kenya;
Lesotho; Malawi; Mauritius; Morocco;
Mozambique; Nigeria; Rwanda; Senegal;
Sierra Leone; Somalia; South Africa; South
Sudan; Eswatini; Tanzania; Togo; Zambia;
and, United States of America as well as the
host Uganda. The conference was supported
The 5th Conference of the Africa Public Sector Human Resource Managers’
Network (APSHRMnet) from 27th to 31st August 2018 was held at the

CONFERENCE
by various international and national
organisations. Delegates included Ministers
of Public Service and other Ministers; Chief
Executives of Public and Private Entities;
Diplomats; Development Partners; Human
Capital Development Organizations; Policy
makers; Human Resource Managers;
Employers; Human Resource Information
System Designers and Developers; APS-
HRM-net Young Leaders, Local Government
Representatives; Civil Society Members;
Leaders of Labour Unions; Training firms and Institutions; Trainers from Institutes of Public
Administration and Civil Service Colleges;
Resource Persons; Consultants; Leaders of
Professional Associations.
The topics of discussion mainly aimed at
changing the mindset of HR Managers in the
African Public Service because they are very
strategic and of value to the transformation of
the African continent.
During the conference, it emerged that: many
countries have not formally recognized HRM
as a profession, and yet they need to have
appreciation of the SDGs and as enshrined in
the Agenda 2030 and 2063 targets in HRM
practice.
It was also noted that there is no established
mechanism of follow up to ensure key
recommendations are implemented yet
the annual APS-HRM-Net Conference is a
critical event for capacity development of HR
practitioners in Africa. It was further observed
that there is unnecessary tension between
employees due to the multi-generational
workforce with the older generations and
the younger generations viewing each other
as hard to work with; little and disjointed
documentation and recognition of innovations
that have taken place in the African Public
Service; and, very limited data analytics for
HR and decision making purposes.
In light of the above, delegates declared
commitment to the transformation of African
continent and especially the pursuit of
SDGs as well as the agenda 2030 and 2063
through the improvement of the HR practice.
They committed to: Focusing on enhancing
stakeholders’ understanding of the values
and principles of the Agenda 2030 and
2063 in HRM and the wider public service;
ensuring the integration of the values and
principles into core competences of the public
service; professionalizing of the HR practice;
Strengthening the membership of APS-HRM-
Net; localizing and mainstreaming SDGs
and Agenda 2030 and 2063 in all their work
processes, as well as; exploiting the strengths
that exist amidst the multigenerational public
service and to encourage each generation to
leverage the other(s).

CONFERENCE
Institutions, Trainers from Institutes of Public
Administration and Civil Service Colleges,
Resource Persons, Consultants, and Leaders
of Professional Associations.
The 5th APS-HRMnet capacity development
Conference was a successor conference to
previous ones hosted by various Governments,
notably Tanzania in 2009 where the APS-
HRMnet was launched, Benin in 2010,
Ethiopia in 2011 and 2014. The theme for
the Conference was ‘’Human Capital:
Sustainable Future for Africa –Agenda
2030 and 2063”.
It should be recalled that on 25th September,
2015, African Countries joined the rest of
the member states of the United Nations
and adopted an ambitious agenda to attain
17 Sustainable Development Goals with 169
targets. These include among others ending
poverty and hunger, improving health and
education, making cities more sustainable,
combating climate change and protecting
oceans and forests. All these are to be attained
by the year 2030. At the continental level,
more targets have been set to be achieved by
the year 2063. The theme of the conference,
therefore, rested on this foundation.
The successful implementation of any
development Agenda, however, requires
Effective, Professional, Efficient, Accountable, Innovative and People Focused Public Sector
institutions. Such desired state of Public
Sector institutions can only be attained
through their human resources since it is the
human resources that translate the rest of the
resources into results towards desired goals.
Participants during one of the sessions

“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
The 5th APS-HRMnet capacity development
Conference was, therefore, a continuation of
a convention set out in 2009 in Tanzania when
the Ministers responsible for Public Service in
Africa with support from the United Nations
Department for Economic and Social Affairs, (UNDESA), Division for Public Administration
and Development Management working with
Human Resource Managers in African Public
Sector institutions established the Africa
Public Sector Human Resource Managers
Network (APS-HRMnet) to champion the
capacities for Human Resource Management
in the Public Service in Africa.
The task of developing the required Public
Sector competences for implementation of
the Agenda 2030 and 2063, therefore, lies
squarely with Human Resource Managers who
needed to be conversant with the Agenda and
understand the implications on competence
requirements for the Public Service so that
they can develop and maintain such resources
through human resources strategies such as
training, talent management, performance
management, as well as mentoring and
coaching.
This report is a presentation of the details
of the conference and is organised under six
sections. Section one is this introduction and
background, objectives of the conference and
the methodology used. The proceedings of the
conference are covered in section two. Section
three covers the election of new office bearers, while section four briefly highlights the closing session, followed by the concluding remarks
in section five and the recommendations in section six respectively.

2.2 PRESENTATION SESSIONS
Mrs. Sezi Mbaguta, former Minister of State
for Public Service Uganda, who is also the
Matron of APS-HRMnet, laid the foundation
for the five-day conference with a key note address.
In her address, she highlighted the evolution
and growth of the Human Resource
Management function from what it was
previously (personnel management) into a
key strategic ally (strategic human resource
management)for any organisation that seeks
to effectively realise its strategic objectives, the implications of implementing international
development goals by adopting strategic
human resource management practices which
focus on: Developing a set of new competences
both for the human capital specialists and line
managers, strengthening partnerships and
collaboration between the public sector, civil
society and Private sector, ethics and integrity
in service delivery and professionalising the
human resource function among others. She
concluded the key note address by noting
that ‘unlocking human capital for sustainable
development is a clarion call to which Human
Capital Practitioners must all pay attention’.
2.2.1 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the African Union Agenda 2063 in Africa: Challenges and Prospects
Prof. Sali Kayunga Simba in his presentation
emphasized that Africa has the potential
to realise the Sustainable Development
Goals and Agenda 2063. He noted that
11
“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
unfortunately, it seems like Human Resource
is not at the table of Agenda 2030 where the
planning for development is done yet without
Human Capital there is no economic growth.
He cautioned that SDG’s are country specific and Countries should target what they can
achieve with resources available. He pointed
out the need to domesticate agenda 2030
and 2063 by National Planning Authorities
of respective countries and include them in
the training curriculum. Additionally, he
cautioned that SDGs can only be achieved
through partnerships and that growth cannot
be achieved without productivity of the human
resource. He also observed that development
agendas have common areas which should
lead to a common planning framework and
collaboration during implementation.
2.2.2 Implementing Agenda 2030 and 2063: Key Competences for Public Officers (Panel Discussion)
During this session, the panelists noted that:
i. There is need to extract the
key principles and values from
the Agenda 2030 and 2063
respectively and embrace them.
ii. It is these principles and
values that will determine the
competencies needed.
iii. There is need to cascade the
agendas at the country, sector,
and local government levels for
implementation.
iv. There is need to leverage
collaboration and partnerships
and avoid competition
v. The value of equity will determine
the competencies required and the
monitoring and evaluation of the
agendas.
vi. The key competencies identified were: inclusion, equity, integration,
resilience, transformation,
collaboration, accountability,
integrity and honesty, strategic
thinking, systems thinking, and
political savviness.
It was noted that the 2030 and 2063 agendas are
qualitative in nature and call for a good society.
HR managers must, therefore, necessarily be
brought to the table where strategies and plans
are made and that governments need to look at
priorities and find out what has been achieved and what has not, and be able to address the
gaps.
2.2.3 Leadership and Promoting a Mindset and Culture Change for Practical Innovations (Panel Discussion)
In this session, the panelists noted the need to:
reflect on the current and the future of public service, be innovative to improve performance.
This could be achieved, for example, by doing
little things like setting aside time to discuss
simple activities unrelated to the core mandate
of organizations. Examples cited include
wellness exercises, reward and encouragement
for innovation in public service, identification of talents and support to employees to focus
on their strengths and talents.
In this regard, HR was challenged to change
its mindset to accommodate the millennial
workers without requiring them to comply
12
REPORT OF THE 5TH AFRICA PUBLIC SECTOR HUMAN RESOURCE
MANAGERS NETWORK (APS-HRMnet) CAPACITY BUILDING
CONFERENCE
with the rules that generation X lived with. The
panelists identified the following challenges: rules and policies being too stringent and
hence stifling innovation, the tedious work spent on salaries and pension processes, low
pay and the inability to effectively manage the millennial workers especially by HR
and general managers who belong to the
Generation X era.
2.2.4 Strengthening Partnerships and Collaboration between the Public Sector, Civil Society and Private Sector
In this session, participants underscored
the need for both Public and private Sector
HR managers to make themselves relevant
by embracing and supporting the adoption
of excellent private sector practices and vice
versa. This kind of interaction between public
and private sector human resource players
can help support better implementation of
activities to realise the two development
agendas
Limited sharing of experiences amongst
countries with regard to how the public and
private sectors interact and support each other
in partnerships to build HRM capacities was
identified as a gap.
Mr. Jim Mugunga, Ms. Allen Asiimwe &
Mr. Richard Sewakiryanga, during a panel
discussion
2.2.5 The State of Human Resource Management: The African and Global Perspective
This session had two parts: The first presenter, Ms. Odette Ramsingh – Deputy President
of the APS-HRMNet, used the example of
football and the metaphor of “Own goals” to
underscore the point that in the African HRM
practice, ‘scoring own goals’ was too prominent
and a norm. She challenged delegates to be
more confident and robust to achieve the transformation agenda, noting that some
executives have seen HR practitioners as not
impressive and delivering to their expectations.
This, she noted, is a critical challenge that
should be tackled. She also emphasized that
despite the various demographic changes,
most HR practitioners still carried along traits
of establishment and personnel management
eras and this curtails the HR performance
in the transformation agenda. The need to
integrate Technology and Communication in
HR was emphasised. She further observed the
need for HR practitioners to fully understand
the business of the organisation, create
13
“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
innovative solutions, think strategically and
be able to provide data showing the positive
impact of HR initiatives. She also called for
effective collaboration between the Chief Executives and the HR professionals. She
proposed focus areas to emphasise for HR
as being: Leadership, Culture, and Talent
management.
The second presenter Mr. Neil Reichenberg
– Executive Director of IPMA-HR, USA
highlighted the existence of a generally
negative perception of all others professions
towards the HR function and highlighted
the need for HR managers to seriously think
of repositioning their ability to move from
transactional to strategic HR practice.
2.2.6 True HR Transformation and Evidence Based Policy Making: The Role of Human Resource Data Analytics
In her presentation, Ms. Dorcus Wainaina the
CEO of Institute of HRM – Kenya, highlighted
the changes in the scope of the Public Service
in Africa, observing that public services are
now provided to populations which are much
larger, more demanding and increasingly more
informed about their rights and obligations.
Consequently, Public Sector HRM has the more
challenging task of ensuring that employee
performance meets the complex expectations
of the growing and informed populations, as
well as political leaders.
This change in the operational environment,
she noted, call for the HR practitioners to
embrace transformation to remain relevant
and acceptable. Such transformation calls for
changes in the way HR practitioners create
and manage data and highlighted several
dimensions of data management that included:
Volume; Capacity; Veracity; Uncertainty;
Velocity; Quantitative; Qualitative;
Triangulation and Energy.
She observed that unfortunately, HR
departments have largely shunned analytics
and focused on automating previously manual
personnel processes. She challenged HR
managers in Africa to move away from data
automation to analytics to avail information
for valid and quick decision making.
She urged HR managers in Africa to embrace:
Self education by taking advantage of the
various learning formats and opportunities;
Understanding the difference between Metrics and Analytics; Understanding the business;
Conferring with Business Leaders and starting
small by Keeping the HR analytics small and
simple initially and going for a few quick wins
while predicting how the workplace will look
like in the future.
2.2.7 Ethics and Integrity – Repositioning Service Delivery
In this session, Prof. Patrick Loch Otieno
Lumumba, Director of the Kenya School
of Law decried neo colonial mentality of
Africans. He noted that professionals on the
African continent act in ways that exhibit
contradictions between culture, ethical
conduct and integrity and lack national ethos
that define what must and must never be done especially in the public sector.
14
REPORT OF THE 5TH AFRICA PUBLIC SECTOR HUMAN RESOURCE
MANAGERS NETWORK (APS-HRMnet) CAPACITY BUILDING
CONFERENCE
He emphasized that for transformation to take
place, individual public service HR managers
must change and seek to change and that such
transformation is possible when civilizations
and people decide to move in one clearly
defined and universally beneficial direction.
He also pointed out the unfortunate vice of
corruption where many leaders have been
associated with questionable situations
especially in regard to self-aggrandizement in
various forms. He noted that ethical conduct
is “doing the right thing because it is the right
thing”. He observed that many HR managers
in Africa approached the public service with a
purely colonial influenced approach, had some elements of the behavior of reaping where
people have not sowed and the unfortunate
fact of looking at all people, societies and
countries like they were homogenous.
He underlined the importance of ethical
conduct because it models ethical behavior to
the organization and the community builds
trust, brings credibility and respect, both for the
individual and the organization. Furthermore,
it leads to collaboration, creates a good climate
within the organization, is simply the right
way to go and that ethical leadership affords self-respect.
He finally listed some critical requirements to professionalize HRM in the African Public
Service anchored on: strong institutions, home
grown laws and policy frameworks, good men
and women, civic education, national culture
and ethics, collaborations amongst countries,
space for competition, use of endogenous
resources in the process of development and
instituting and activating sanctions for the
corrupt.
2.2.8 Transformational Leadership Capacity in Public Sector Institutions
Dr John Mary Kauzya of UNDESA, in his
presentation highlighted Africa’s sustainable
development challenges and noted that the
challenge is how to tackle Africa’s interests
in a world of increasing inter-dependency
and the need to establish legitimate and
sustainable state institutions while leading
large scale transformation. He explained how
transformation is well expressed in global,
regional and national development strategies
but emphasized the need to reflect and discuss the kind of leadership needed for such agenda
as transformational leadership.
He cautioned delegates against the error of
focusing on the 17 SDGs without emphasizing
the values and principles that are enshrined
in the preamble such as the notion of
transformation, the P’s of the 2030 agenda,
the integration, leaving no one behind,
Partnerships, Resilience, and inclusive growth.
15
“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
Mr. Kauzya making a presentaion on
transformational leadership
The presenter noted that transformational
leadership in the 2030 Agenda includes: the
people, planet, prosperity, poverty eradication,
peace in freedom and partnership and that no
leader can deliver development to the people.
Instead, it is the people that develop their
societies. In this regard, both the leaders and
the led need to understand that development
is not a package to be handed out but about
inspiring, mobilizing and motivating people to
work together for development.
He proposed a model to verify transformational
leadership effectiveness by examining three elements which include; the leader’s strategy,
achievements, speech and action. He then
pointed out the need for a vision-driven
results based transformational leadership
which consists of Mission driven strategic
leadership, anticipatory planning, and results
based accountability and integrated leadership
system which must be shared by the people.
He challenged delegates to view leadership
as integrated and permeating at all levels of
society and avoid the usual mistake of always
looking at central government. He pointed
out that transformational leaders must focus
on transforming society, individuals, and
institutions. He also called on delegates to
always work for social equity if they are to truly
be transformational on the large-scale.
He further challenged all to embrace a paradigm
shift of transformation of governance from
autocratic to transformational leadership and
called on Africa to start relying on own thinking
and reducing the influence of external forces. He recommended that development should be
all inclusive, leaving no body behind and the
major target should be the most vulnerable in
society, and this needs an ideology which is
people focused.
2.2.9 Decentralisation of Service Delivery in Africa: Implications for the SDGs and Agenda 2063
In her presentation, Dr. Zarrouk Najat
informed the conference that decentralisation
was a complex policy with many actors who lack
commitment and are uncertain about reforms.
She highlighted the benefits of decentralisation with the end result being improving and easing
service delivery. She observed that there are
challenges of implementing SDGs and Agenda
2063 in the current geopolitical context both
at national level and sub national level and
these include: the inadequate human capital,
resources and a poor work environment in
local governments among others.

CONFERENCE
Dr. Zarrouk Najat delivering a paper on
decentralisation of Service Delivery in Africa
The discussant, Mr. Ben Kumumanya, the
Permanent Secretary of Ministry of Local
Government in Uganda said local councils have
better information about the local preferences
and can allocate resources in accordance
with the needs of the local communities.
He noted that the ingredients of successful
decentralization include; commitment by
various stakeholders, appropriate legislative
framework, appropriate systems and
resource allocations, accountability and
checks and balances. He, however, informed
the conference that there is a high turnover
of skilled staff from local governments to central governments which in-turn cripples
implementation of Agenda 2030 and 2063.
Mr. Ben Kumumanya, Permanent Secretary
Ministry of Local Government, Uganda
2.2.10 Technological Advances: Implications for Human Resource Policies and Practices
Mr. David Mushabe the presenter informed the
conference that human resource is threatened
by technology which will in the future take
over the work done by professionals. He noted
that today, millennial workers are doing the
jobs that did not exist 2 years ago and 65% of
school graduates will be doing jobs that have
not been invented yet. He gave the example
of robotics that can make calls to clients and
replace people in customer service jobs.
Technology advancement will have adverse
impact even on the crucial function of the HR
managers, leaving them with only complex
tasks such as building relationships.
This, therefore, presents a challenge for
the HR Managers to rethink HR policies
and Practices in the wake of technological
advances at the workplace. In addition, there
17
“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
is need to redefine sourcing and recruitment to take advantage of technology. For instance,
technology can be used to create linkages with
Universities to verify academic documents
without receiving hard copies of documents.
Mr. David Mushabe- CEO SMS One making
a presentation on Technological advances
and their implications on HRM
He observed challenges such as reluctance
to change by stakeholders, inadequate skill
sets, loss of jobs occasioned by automation, IT
security issues and unclear legal frameworks.
He concluded that technology is already
changing work and that constant learning
and upskilling is no longer the differentiator. The HR function will need a fundamental
rethink and life skills being the major focus
for practitioners because it is impossible to
automate life skills.
The conference observed that there are no HR
policies to deal with constant technological
changes and that HR Practitioners must
embrace technology. It was also noted that
HR jobs are changing and the example was
that increasingly, organizations want HR
Analytic specialists not HR officers. Fears were, however, also raised of the possibility
of cybercrime in HRM being worse than in
manual processes.
2.2.11 Making it to the Boardroom
This session had two presenters: Dr. Mary
Theopista Wenene, the Secretary to the Health
Service Commission, Uganda emphasized
that there is need for an increased presence of
Human Resource Managers in the Boardroom.
Human Resource Managers must, however,
have the necessary capacity to contribute to
national development and the attainment of
millennium development goals. She pointed
out that authority of public officers stem from public trust and advised that some key values
must always be displayed at individual level
and these include; Respect for Authority,
Acquiring Trust, Teamwork and Quality as
a unique personal signature. She informed
the delegates that Boardroom authority
arises from public trust; unwavering focus
on the strategic direction/public good; value
addition to the Boardroom; Negotiating
positions; Perseverance when negotiations
fail and Innovative ways of addressing which
issues have to be deployed. She noted that
HR managers should be willing to learn on
continuous basis and be good communicators.
She concluded by encouraging delegates that
Systems are in place to deliver them to the
Boardroom and when there, it is an opportunity
to add value and utilize it to contribute to the
transformation of society.
18
REPORT OF THE 5TH AFRICA PUBLIC SECTOR HUMAN RESOURCE
MANAGERS NETWORK (APS-HRMnet) CAPACITY BUILDING
CONFERENCE
In the second part of the presentation, Ms.
Florence Wachira, Vice President, APS-
HRMnet (EA) put a gender touch to the subject
and pointed out the need for equity to benefit both men and women in matters of accessing
the boardroom. She reminded the delegates
the African perception of a woman which
should not affect the way HR Managers look at women and men.
2.2.12 Social Security Protection (SSP): A Must for a Sustainable Future for Africa HR
In this session, it was pointed out that the
major aim of Social Security Protection is
to increase human dignity in relation to the
Agenda 2030 and 2063 especially Goal N0. 1
of Agenda, 2030 of ending poverty. A number
of issues were noted including; the measure
of poverty using the $2 USD per day is not
fair in Africa because it will not drive poverty
out of African societies; 90% of employees in
Africa are not covered by SSP and, therefore,
there is need for political good will to ensure
that employees have social protection during
old age; and Global SSP has emerged as
an important invention for supporting the
population to maintain acceptable level of life.
The call for social protection programmes
is not only based on human rights or moral
grounds, but on the belief and fact that social
protection is an important instrument for
economic growth. It is an investment in human
capital development which is no less important
than investments in physical infrastructure.
Social protection contributes significantly to reducing poverty and inequality, and that
it is a peace and security token for all. Social
protection remains a vital tool for achieving
inclusive growth and social cohesion in Africa.
The presenter also highlighted various forms
of social security. In addition, the following
challenges were noted: Earlier than expected
exits of service by employees which affects savings in the available retirement schemes;
Intergenerational linkage of the workforce
in Africa discourages the young generation
from hard work because those who retire
are miserable due to lack of sustainable SSP
schemes.
It was recommended that HR managers
should be proponents for an environment
where: Retirements benefits should not be the only source of benefits for employees. Employees should look at other available
opportunities; plan and help themselves to
come up with own schemes and projects to
help them improve their incomes during
old age. HR practitioners can identify the
best SSP schemes for employees and guide
them to take up such schemes to help them
during their retirement, old age and in case of
incapacitation. Furthermore, HR practitioners
should persuade organizations to adopt social
security schemes because they benefit the organizations in terms of recruitment and
retention of skilled employees, motivation of
employees and good image for the employer
amongst others.

“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
2.2.13 Managing a Multi- Generational Work-force
In this session, Mr. Francis Kamulegeya,
Country Senior Partner – PwC highlighted
the different generations currently in the workplace, what HR Managers need to
consider when working with different generations, how the different generations in the workplace define success, conflicts that may arise in the workplace between
generational values and expectations; how to
motivate, coach, mentor and reward different generations in the workplace; Understanding
the millennial generation and getting the deal
right and bridging the generations gap in the
workplace.
The conference noted that the Public Service
is facing numerous challenges including an
aging workforce, under funding, too much
bureaucracy, rapid changes in technology,
high demands from the public and shortage of
key talent. Despite all the foregoing, not much
has changed in the Public Service as too much
focus remains on adhering to established
(and in most cases outdated) processes,
procedures and protocols and that the ability
to attract and retain key talent in this new era
of the knowledge worker will be vital for any
government and public service organisation
that wishes to deliver on their long term
strategy and vision.
Aligning service provision and talent
management strategy is particularly important
in the public sector with the latest set of
employees entering the workplace. It was also
noted that for the first time in the corporate world, we now have four generations in the
workplace working alongside each other.
The presenter also provided key take-away
messages pointing out that managing talent
of the knowledge worker in this digital age
requires Human Resource Managers to: Invest
time, resources and energy to stay connected
to their people; create and encourage a flexible work culture, fully leverage technology;
introduce and accelerate opportunities for
international or rotational experience; value
their values and understand their personal
goals; Increase transparency and fairness
around compensation, rewards and career
options; teach people skills and not just
business processes; show people that HR cares,
and tell them to build a sense of a community
in the workplace, collegial collaborative
teamwork; Share the big picture by explaining
the what, how and why; get the deal right and
communicate it clearly and regularly check on
people before they check out.
2.2.14 Leading and Promoting a Mindset and Culture Change for Practical Innovations
In this session, Mr. Pius Bigirimana, the
Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of
Labour, Gender and Social Development in
Uganda, noted that although technological
advancement has sky rocketed, enlightenment
reached all corners of the continent,
connectedness achieved beyond the continent,
colonial masters returned to their Metropolis,
the African Public service has increasingly
become a laughing stock. Service delivery is
a mockery of the past glory due to a pathetic
lack of ethos and focus on the citizens. There
is increasing corruption, nepotism, economic
deprivation and environmental degradation,
20
REPORT OF THE 5TH AFRICA PUBLIC SECTOR HUMAN RESOURCE
MANAGERS NETWORK (APS-HRMnet) CAPACITY BUILDING
CONFERENCE
inadequate selflessness, absence of the Public spirit, and poverty amidst plenty.
It was observed that this situation requires an
urgent rebirth and rediscovery of the Public
Service. This paper was, therefore, a call for
a drastic shift in the paradigms of the Public
Services across Africa. The presenter dwelt on:
the case for changing Organisational Culture;
why innovation; organisational culture and
Innovation; Building a Risk-Averse Culture;
Reward for Innovating; Having Flexible Rules
and Regulations and the necessary Resources
for Innovation. He also provided tips on how to
become innovative and concluded by sharing
personal experiences at leading innovation at
the Work place.
2.2.15 Demystifying Performance Management: Revolutionalising the 21st Century Workplace the case of the United Nations Public Service Awards
In this session, the presenter Ms Kim noted
that the United Nations Public Service
Awards (UNPSA) recognizes excellence in
public service at the global level. This was
launched in 2003 in order to promote and
support innovations in public service delivery
worldwide. Since the adoption of the 2030
Agenda for Sustainable Development, the
UNPSA continues to promote and reward
innovation and excellence in public service in
support of the realization of the SDGs and the
principles of leaving no one behind.
The UNPSA is organized and managed by the
United Nations Department of Economic and
Social Affairs (UNDESA), through its Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government
(DPIDG).
Delegates were informed that the purpose of
the UNPSA was to: Highlight innovations;
Reward excellence; Motivate public servants;
Enhance professionalism; Raise the profile of public service; and Collect and disseminate
successful practices. The eligibility, selection
procedure and how to apply for consideration
as well as conditions for disqualification of an award were highlighted.
2.2.17 Ministers’ Conversation: Attracting and retaining talent in the Public Service for the attainment of 2030 and 2063 Development goals
Hon. David Karubanga, Minister of State for
Public Service in Uganda; Hon. Blaiz – Cabinet
Minister in the Central African Republic;
Dr. John Kauzya from UNDESA and Dr.
Zarrouk Najat were the panelists. The session
was moderated by Mr. Peter Kibazo. In the
discussion, participants examined: -
i. The attraction and retention
of talent that requires creating
a good environment for work,
recognizing innovation and
motivating employees to work.
ii. The difficulty of retaining an employee without understanding
their expectations.
21
“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
iii. The importance of having a culture
that speaks to organizational
goals which millennial workers
will adopt. Noted that while
some policies may not favour the
interest of millennial workers, HR
practitioners should, therefore,
not focus on searching for the
superman or super woman when
searching for talent. They should
take the common man, support
them to work and let them work.
iv. The degree of freedom and
flexibility accorded by managers to let people work.
v. The frameworks implemented
by HR Managers for managing
and sanctioning talent in order to
retain talent.
vi. Coaching and mentoring, training
and life-long learning as ways for
effective attraction and retention of talent.
vii. The importance of training and
continuous learning in retaining
talent since Job profiles change overtime rendering the talent
hired being irrelevant to the job
needs.
2.2.18 Off Site Study Tours
On day four, delegates had an Offsite Excursion to the Source of the Nile through Namugongo
Martyr‘s Shrine. In Jinja, delegates toured
the Civil Service College, Uganda where they
planted trees according to their countries of
origin. A special cultural gala was later held at
Ndere Troupe.
Elections for new office bearers were held and conducted in accordance with the APS-
HRMnet Constitution. The results of the
elections were as follows:

CONCLUSION
25
“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
During the deliberations,
observations and discussions, the
conference made the following key
recommendations.
1.1 To achieve the Sustainable
Development Goals and the
African Union Agenda 2063, there
should be systematic efforts made by countries on the continent
bearing in mind the bottlenecks
the continent faces today. This
should be complimented by a
convergence of HRs to align the
development agenda.
1.2 The key principles and values from
the Agenda 2030 and 2063 should
be extracted and embraced by all
key stakeholders on the continent.
1.3 HR managers should be brought
to the table where strategies and
plans are made bearing in mind
governments’ priorities and what
has been achieved, what has not to
address the gaps.
1.4 There should be engagement of
Local Governments in the planning
and implementation of these great
initiatives bearing in mind the
different levels of social, political and economic development.
1.5 Pupularisation of the SDGs and
the Agenda should be undertaken
by countries to facilitate their
integration in the HR work.
1.6 Leading and promoting a mindset
and culture change for practical
innovations requires HR managers
to devise approaches that ensure
that Africa has human resources
with the right competences and
attitude for the delivery on the
development of the SDGs and the
Agenda.
RECOMMENDATIONS
26
REPORT OF THE 5TH AFRICA PUBLIC SECTOR HUMAN RESOURCE
MANAGERS NETWORK (APS-HRMnet) CAPACITY BUILDING
CONFERENCE
1.7 HR managers should critically
reflect and establish the actual role they play to ensure acquisition
and retention of the required
competences for Africa to attain
Agenda 2030 and 2063.
1.8 Policy makers and implementers
on the continent should avoid the
error of focusing on the 17 SDGs
without emphasising the values
and principles enshrined in the
preamble.
1.9 Development should be all
inclusive, leaving nobody behind
targeting the most vulnerable in
society with an ideology of people
focus.
1.10 The challenge of the mismatch
between labour supply from
education institutions and the
demand side from the public
sector should be addressed.
1.11 There should be cross fertilization
of best practices in the private
sector to the Public sector and vice
versa to strengthen partnerships
and collaboration between the
public sector, civil society and the
private sector.
1.12 Countries on the continent should
share experiences on how they have
translated the SDG accountability
score card into government policy
as an impetus for private and civil
society interest.
1.13 HR managers should embrace
and enhance performance use
of data analytics as a weapon for
true transformation and evidence
based policy making on the
continent.
1.14 There should be a convergence
in understanding the concept of
ethics and integrity in relation
to repositioning of public service
delivery on the continent.
This should be done through
establishment and documentation
of lessons and successes that
have been made and whether the
successes were due to compliance
or ownership.
1.15 Human Resource Managers
should have a paradigm shift from
personnel management and adopt
new practices under strategic
human resource management.
1.16 African HR should embrace
leading by example and the practice
of encouraging an environment
that nurtures and promotes home
grown HR solutions to African
problems.
1.17 HR professionals should
provide strategic support to
organizations through provision
of data linked to the overall
goals of their organizations,
coaching subordinates, navigating
change and building meaningful
organizational culture.
1.18 HR Managers should overcome
their inferiority complex and
stop apologizing, break the silos
and integrate with the business
and other functions and move
organizations forward as leaders
and not as just partners.
27
“HUMAN CAPITAL: SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR AFRICA
AGENDA 2030 AND 2063
1.19 Professionalising HR should not
be done in isolation of other areas
of public administration and
management including finance and administration, procurement,
planning, amongst others
both at the centre and in local
governments.
1.20 HR practitioners should not be
a jack of all trades. They should
endeavor to specialize in particular
areas of HR and become HR
experts.
1.21 For HR to be professionalized
there should be respect for already
existing structures, rules and
regulations.
1.22 Legalizing HR as a profession alone
will not professionalize HR but HR
practitioners should improve their
practice, knowledge, integrity, etc
in order to position HR to shape
Africa’s Public service.
1.23 Professionalizing HR should
start by putting in place the
legal framework which should
specify the nature of skills and
competencies required and the HR
code of ethics among several.
1.24 Human Resource managers
should develop the necessary
capacity to contribute to national
development goals.
1.25 HR Managers should be ready and
willing to learn on a continuous
basis and be god communicators.
1.26 HR managers should be
proponents for an environment
where retirements benefits should not be the only source of benefits for employees’ social security.
1.27 HR practitioners should
identify the best SSP schemes
for employees; guide them to
take up such schemes for their
retirement, old age and in case of
incapacitation.
1.28 HR practitioners should persuade
organizations to adopt social
security schemes because they
benefit the organizations in terms of recruitment and retention of
skilled employees, motivation of
their employees and good image
for the employers.
1.29 Human Resource Managers
should invest time, resources and
energy to stay connected with
employees; create and encourage
a flexible work culture, fully leverage technology; introduce
and accelerate opportunities
for international or rotational
experience; value their values and
understand their personal goals.
1.30 HR managers should equally
increase transparency and fairness
around compensation, rewards
and career options; teach employee
skills and not just business
processes; show employees that
HR cares and build a sense of a
community in the workplace.
