As leaders you have to influence your subordinates by providing purpose, motivation and direction to them,” he added.Assembled at the GDF Officers Mess at Camp Ayanganna for a command briefing on Thursday, September 10 they got this advice from Colonel Bruce Lovell of the GDF, Assistant Commissioner Khrisna Lekhraj of the GPF,

He told them that ignoring the mediocrity of subordinates is to be derelict in their duties.“Some have adopted the untenable position that with a new generation and societal changes your standards must be adjusted to suit. This is the belief of those who seek any excuse for laziness and ineptitude.”He advised them that standards should not be compromised because when that occurs everyone losses but he however noted that as leaders they “must show compassion while remaining dispassionate”.Assistant Commissioner of Police,

He told the junior officers that while understanding the realities they must recognise the need for continuous learning.“As young leaders you must know your organisation and its objectives; the functions of your office, and, in particular, your Standing Orders.”He pointed out that many are deviating from the Oaths they took which “cannot continue”. The Deputy Commissioner encouraged all to do some introspection and posited that they should “Focus on strengthening areas of weakness.“Revisit your values and ask yourselves whether characteristics such as respect, integrity, impartiality, reliability and accountability are evident to your subordinates, peers and superiors”.Further he said the JOS roles and functions require interaction with the public and that they will judge them on the merits of what it demonstrates.“If we are sincere in adopting positive behaviours, then we reflect a positive image…It is imperative that as middle managers, you know your mission, vision and values as well as the rules and regulations governing your actions among your selves and with the public,
