Engr Mark Amoamah, President of CILT Ghana, highlighted the importance of the event. “Your presence here today signifies not just an event, but a shared commitment to professionalism and the advancement of the supply chain, logistics, and transport sectors,” he noted.
He encouraged the new members to embrace their responsibilities with passion and integrity, stating, “You are not inducted today to go to sleep.
“Your ideas, dedication, and commitment are vital to our mission to shape a robust, efficient, and ethical logistics and transport ecosystem in Ghana.”
Engr Amoamah also urged inductees to participate actively in the activities of CILT across its existing sections in Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi, Tema, and Sunyani, with Northern and Tarkwa sections expected to launch soon.
Delivering the keynote address, Dr Ebo Hammond, immediate past president of CILT Ghana, emphasised the critical role logistics and transport play in national development.
“When goods move efficiently from source to destination, businesses grow, costs decrease, and consumers benefit,” he said.
Dr Hammond challenged the inductees to go beyond academic and professional achievements and embrace ethical values as cornerstones of their professional conduct.
He recommended the “Three H” Model for professional excellence: Head (knowledge), Hands (skills), and Heart (values).
He also introduced FACETIEE, an acronym representing the key values needed for sustainable development: Fairness, Accountability, Competition, Ethical Standards, Transparency, Integrity, Economy (Value for Money), Effectiveness, and Efficiency.
“This membership is a pledge to uphold the highest ethical standards and to contribute meaningfully to the progress of our profession and our nation,” Dr Hammond emphasised.
