That it is our nation's captains of industry and our brightest and best entrepreneurs - of all age groups - who in the final analysis will make our collective nation-building effort end in the transformation of our homeland Ghana into a prosperous nation, which works for all its people, is not in doubt.
However, the point also needs to made that the Ghanaian business world's C-suite needs to understand clearly that no business today has a future if it is not underpinned by corporate good governance principles - and lacks a corporate culture with an ethical ethos that ensures a firm commitment to all the UN SDGs internally.
The question is: Should we support even those who accumulate great wealth as a result of their success in business and who also provide jobs - but who do so using questionable tactics: some fraudulent in nature?
This blog posits that business leaders of that kind cannot serve Ghanaian society's long-term best interests - for their dishonesty undermines our core values as a people. Above all, because of the absence in them of a moral compass, ultimatlely, their legacies are often more destructive in nature than constructive.
As a people we must always back entrepreneurs who are ethical and innovative and are successful in business for that reason. They are the true nation builders of the digital age - in which competition for talent is glocal - for it is the results of their positive-creativity that will help secure our nation's future.
