THE National Competitiveness and Productivity Council (NCPC) has launched a new television series “Productivity Matters”.
The series, (which is funded by Compete Caribbean) gives insight into organisations and agencies within the private and public sectors, whose programmes and initiatives focus on productivity and/or competitiveness.
The series which comprise six episodes, made its debut this week.
Marketing Analyst at the NCPC, Mrs Geraldine Biscette Joseph states: “There are many organisations out there that are doing great things with regards to helping develop the nation through productivity initiatives and we believe that it is only right for their efforts to be highlighted. Each episode within the series varies significantly from the other as we have looked at a range of individuals and subject matters including the construction industry, solid waste management, the public service, the Commercial Division of the High Court and young entrepreneurs”.
Biscette added: “At the NCPC we also recognise that it is sometimes hard to grasp the concepts of productivity and competitiveness and so we hope that the series will illustrate how these concepts, when applied practically, bring about a positive outcome for the nation”.
