Fredrick Okendo

From a young age, I've been passionate about creating positive change. Witnessing the impact of limited opportunities on life choices, particularly early marriage, fueled my desire to empower individuals to reach their full potential.

I believe organizations can be powerful agents for good. They function as ecosystems where people strategy, culture, and performance all work in concert. This is where my 9+ years of Human Resources expertise comes in.

1. Reduced Attrition Rate: My leadership in designing a Job Evaluation program with employee involvement resulted in a significant reduction in staff turnover, from 30% to 8%. This translates to cost savings on recruitment and increased overall productivity.
2. End-to-End Recruitment: I have a proven track record of managing the entire recruitment process, from job analysis and advertising to selection, onboarding, and performance management.
3. HR Technology Expertise: I leverage HR platforms systems to streamline HR processes and boost employee productivity. Some of the ones I have utilized are Zoho People and SeamlessHR

1. Efficiency Champion: I create internal control systems for managing office budgets and accountability, leading to improved operational efficiency. I also actively work with teams to develop process checklists and implement feedback loops for continuous improvement.
2. Policy Development: I have experience designing policies both for profit and Not-for-profit organization.
3. Project Management: My strong understanding of organizational processes allows me to effectively manage programs. I utilize a monitoring and evaluation approach to ensure successful implementation.
4. Systems Improvement: I led the design of a systems improvement plan for a hospital in Burundi. This enhanced transparency and accountability, reassuring donors about the use of funds.
