Solving complex challenges through cross-functional support to East African businesses, investors & ecosystem builders.
About us
Our team has spent more than 70 years on the frontlines of East African companies as managers & entrepreneurs. We know how tough building companies is–because we’ve done it. And we know that because the challenges are complex, the solutions must be. We founded Melela to combine our team’s technical & managerial expertise to solve these challenges for our clients. We engage with our clients to identify challenges & opportunities internally and across the market—understanding that internal support is often critical for successful growth. We then develop a roadmap for how we can drive the achievement of client objectives through cross-departmental support, process implementation, training & market insight. Given the complexity of driving business growth, our client engagements last between three months and a year, as we build internal processes & teams to create the foundation for sustainable growth. Depending on client needs, we ensure skills are developed internally so when we finish the company has the skills & motivation to plan & execute effectively for the years to come.

For the last year we've been working at Melela on a boring but critical goal--getting our weekly team meetings and project management tools right. Why so important? Because team meetings help us manage our most valuable resource--time--to serve our clients and build our firm. This week we finally got there: - Team members asked for help on projects-- asking others to reprioritize their time for support - They changed strategic course in the meeting, reworking our tactics to better align with our objectives - They discussed and reprioritized overall tasks in line with our firm objectives And they were eager for a fast and efficient session so they could jump into focus time. We've still got more to do--processes can always improve--but as we head into 2025 our collaboration and prioritization is on the right track.

Strong Communication, Sharper Strategies! Our weekly Strategic Thinking and Advanced Communication training sessions are in full swing! Here's a quick update from the past two weeks: We learned the essentials of self-editing and peer feedback, refining communication for clarity, structure, and impact while ensuring alignment with organizational objectives. We also explored the art of short-form multimedia communication, focusing on audience alignment, headline crafting, and campaign development to enhance engagement on professional platforms like LinkedIn. These sessions are equipping our trainees with powerful tools to communicate effectively and think strategically—key skills for driving professional success. Stay tuned as we continue building these critical capabilities! #StrategicThinking #AdvancedCommunication #ProfessionalDevelopment #AudienceAlignment #ContentCreation #CampaignDevelopment #EditingPractice #ClarityAndImpact #ThoughtLeadership #GrowthMindset
