WINDHOEK: Namibia Economist Businesswoman of the Year 2011, Nangula Uaandja says business people who want to make a difference in life should understand that they can never succeed on their own without the assistance of others.

Uaandja made this statement during the Namibia Economist Businesswomen Club’s networking breakfast meeting, held at Sun Karros (Old Daan Viljoen) on Friday.

The businesswoman, who was the only speaker at the event, talked about the benefits and importance of developing strong relationships if a person wants to grow their business.

Uaandja pointed out that business people should identify the most crucial relationships that they want to enter into because they cannot have working relationships with just about anybody in the country.

She added that business people should also be able to recognise and pursue relationships that are crucial for their development.
