The management of one’s diary is very important for any business. Many lawyers will be familiar with this, therefore I will not dwell much on it.
1. Every morning, the first thing you do is attend to your diary. You must have an IN tray and an Out tray. The trays could be virtual of manual. You look at everything in your In Tray and you allocate the day of the week on which you will attend to the task.
2. You pull out all the files Diarized for the day and you allocate the time on the day during which you will attend to the task having regard to your meetings and court schedules. You don’t go home until you complete the tasks for the day.
3. I followed this routine religiously. But what I did differently is how I planned my work and evaluated my performance. I grew up in the farms where my father was a foreman. In farms, we deal with biological assets. Time is of the essence all the time. Doing things right is not enough. You must do things right and timely. Thus you must have daily objectives and you must evaluate your performance against set targets on a daily basis. You must understand where you failed and the reasons there for. Any failures could mean death of crops or animals.
4. So I used to write my plans on little pieces of paper. My PA then and now, Mrs Moyo, would collect these and file them. My plans were based on my answers to very basic questions:
4.1 what did I come to work to do today?
4.2. What did I manage to do?
4.3.what did I fail to do and why?
4.4 how do I plan to correct my failures tomorrow?
Everyday and at the end of the day, I would carry out this evaluation. I continue to use this tool to evaluate my work and that of my subordinates to the present day. It has worked for me. I am so heartened that in the USA, DOGE is now calling for accountability of Civil Servants on weekly tasks. Please try using a similar tool. You could achieve amazing results.

I would like to pick on a few illustrations that characterized my practice before I moved to the corporate world. I will be writing about the following during the course of this week:
1. How I managed my diary and the lessons learnt from my childhood that helped me develop a tool with which I managed my practice. I still use the same tool in managing my businesses.
2. The importance of networking and how my decision to be mentored and supervised by a lawyer who did not have a law degree changed my career permanently.
3. How we shook the Financial Services Sector and contributed to the collapse of traditional Finance Houses: the importance of understanding basic accounting and mathematics in a corporate law practice.
4. What or who inspired me to pursue Corporate Finance as a carrier: my role in the development of the ownership structure of the Joina City and the dual listing of NMB on the Zimbabwe and London Stock Exchanges.
5. My role in the Econet cases: an innovative approach to the pursuit of commercial interests while leveraging on fundamental freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution. Here, I will talk about Dr Masiyiwa, the Edison Zvobgo speech that made President Mugabe walk out of a Hebert Chitepo Memorial lecture, my fight against State interference with judicial proceedings, my encounters with the Legendary Dr Joshua Nkomo, how I learnt that when the powerful become corrupt, they lose restraint and they become brazen and shameless, the assistance we received from President Mnangagwa, then Minister of Justice that I will never forget and what made Justice Smith to conclude: “with friends like Chiyangwa, who needs enemies?” (No offense intended as Philip Chiyangwa later became more than a friend to me, a brother).

I just published Drip footwear is to be liquidated, before you judge them, here are my thoughts. link.medium.com/kRbC5JSzBNb

@ChadMhako Drip's liquidation comes as surprise (to me) because all along i thought it was doing well.
Its really sad to see all the hard work going down the drain and people losing their jobs.
Is it possible to do a case study highlighting missteps so we can learn from Drip's experience?
