Ascend HR Services Ltd is a human resources consulting company, based in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.  Established in 2005, we have systematically increased our contribution to human resources and managerial development in Tanzania.

 

Change is an evolutionary process in business as in government as in nature; and unstoppable.  The most highly successful companies and nations today are the ones that have the ability to change and adapt as a core competency.  We work with organisations that recognise the inevitability of change. 

 

Our medium-term focus remains the support of employers in managing fundamental changes in how people are managed, towards significant improvement in performance outcomes and good corporate governance.  Typically what our clients have asked of us are:

· Guidance and support in establishing performance management processes that truly link individual performance with organisational results. 

· Improving supervisory and managerial skills through training and mentoring.

· Designing and facilitating culture change processes; most frequently this is to transform former para-statals organisations into independent, for-profit organisations.

· Guidance in aligning Human Resources and Industrial Relations policies, procedures and practices to the new  Employment and Industrial Relations Act, 2004.

· Mentoring high potential local senior managers.

 

 Our long-term focus is to provide the full range of human resources services which will include the establishment of world-class HR management systems and procedures such as job evaluation, recruitment, compensation and benefits, career development, competency development and strategic human resource management, all designed to drive the achievement of the organisation’s strategic goals.

 

We are different.   We have two fundamental beliefs:

 

¨ People can transcend any obstacles provided they are treated right.

¨ The people in the organisation are the key to its future.

 

We work very hard in helping our clients achieve their business results through the transformation of systems, procedures and processes; and through the personal transformation that managers and employees have to undergo in order to bring the organisation closer to its true potential. And, in the process, they, the backbone of the organisation, also come closer to fulfilling their personal potential.

 

In this way the organisation becomes more of a community (with commonality of purpose and culture).  

 

Better results are achieved through greater job satisfaction and a sense of belonging and ownership.

 

Text Box: Change is taking place at a rate that is accelerating all the time.
  
Being in Africa does not mean we are immune to changes in the rest of the world.
  
Globalisation can no  more be avoided or ignored than a tsunami or an erupting volcano. 

It is driven by forces beyond our control and full comprehension.

Let us not stick our heads in the sand and allow globalisation to pass us by because we hold on to old fashioned and out-dated ways of managing ourselves;

Let us be proactive and take from the global marketplace what suits and benefits us most in building a strong Tanzanian economy.
 
The time is now to break through to a new way of managing.

 Ascend HR Services is there to help.

Pelorovis antiquus—the predecessors of the buffalo, and cousins to the skeletons you will see at Olduvai Gorge.  Did they die out or did they adapt? You don’t see them anymore, but clearly they are family of the modern African buffalo.
