Mary Luseka repeatedly demeaned, cajoled, threatened and mocked staff members whom she didn’t like and made it almost impossible for the junior colleagues to comfortably work in the state corporation tasked with marketing the country and positioning it as an investment and tourist destination.
Her attitude led to the recent exit of senior staff members who saw it impossible to work with her. The board decided to suspend her when the head of legal services served a notice of resignation, citing the attitude and character of the CEO as reason why he had to leave.
Whenever Mary Luseka threatened the staff, she bragged of her high and powerful connections in the government. Decision to send her on compulsory leave was reached after the board’s sub-committee on Human Resource led by Kathleen Kihanya investigated her and found it impossible to continue having her as the CEO of the key corporation.
