First few weeks in Kasungu....

Have arrived in Kasungu and got settled into the Microloan Foundation head office. My role here as Training Development Manager involves developing, piloting, rewriting and facilitating training for loan officers, branch managers and some office staff. We hope to start on the 17th with a pilot group to try out 'dealing with emails and dealing with in-trays', which may be even more fun than it sounds.
Really excited to have joined the team, who are doing amazing things here in Africa (check out the Microloan website at microloanfoundation.org.uk to see more!) and finding my way around town, meeting the neighbours and exploring the shops.

This week I have been looking for a team house, looking through the training modules written by the lovely people at Deloitte, London and starting to write training workbooks. Tomorrow we go to the national park to meet the elephants!
