Botswana Railways 5 year strategy launched.

We have started a new journey, an exciting road map that gives us fresh energy to propel this organisation and economy into the new future.

The years 2017 and 2018 ushered in a new leadership, both at the Board, Executive and Senior Management Level. This ‘state of flux’ was not helped by the fact that the then operating strategy was coming to an end, this according to the CEO when delivering the 2018/19 Annual Report needed a lot of balance hence his decision to delay the formulation of the new five-year plan.

This he said allowed him to familiarise himself with the operations of the organisation while also consolidating stability.

Fast forward! The 2019/20- 2023/24 strategy has since been developed, approved and is being cascaded across all levels of the organisation .
