Habibou

Habibou Ouro-Djobo runs a subcontracting business. For a long time, he lacked confidence in himself and what he was doing. He often gave up at the smallest obstacles. But recently, he has overcome these barriers thanks to the personal development concepts he learned during a Personal Initiative Training. Not only did the course give him fresh motivation, it also gave him the necessary confidence he needed to move ahead on the challenging road to entrepreneurship.

​

“The other business training courses focused merely on the concepts and principles of entrepreneurship. It was more theory than practical knowledge. This was a more dynamic training course, helping us to become engaged by using personal development techniques,” he explains.

​

Habibou has become much more structured and methodical in his work and is aiming to professionalize his business. “During the training we were taught to set objectives for ourselves and how to rise to the challenges we might eventually face. Since then, I have tried to build relationships that can be useful to me in the future. In the past, that was something I didn’t do,” he adds.

Today, he honors all of his commitments and works to enhance his credibility with his partners. His ambition is to see his business grow and to leave the subcontracting field in order to bid on projects himself. He believes that he now has the key to achieving that.
