I would like to get Nigerian recognized certification in Client Service Management, take up new skills in management, diversify and expand my knowledge in supply chain management this year.

To achieve this, I'll invest more in personal development and be more focused.

There's a timeline to achieve these feats. Hopefully, before the end of the second quarter of this year, I should have accomplished 70% of my target.

The bottom line is to be valuable and increase my financial status while growing in my field of endeavor.
