My employees were stealing from me and I had no idea. I almost closed my business | Phoina's story

To many people, Phoina Tosha needs no introduction.
She is arguably one of Kenya's most prominent beauty entrepreneurs with her own hairline and beauty products.
She has done so well for herself but also knows what it means to have the people you trained and hired in your company steal from you to make you want to close down your business.
In this episode of Inspire Global, she takes Lynn Ngugi through her journey, lessons learned, and what legacy she wants to leave behind

My take home is to keep going...being a food business owner, phoina has really inspired me. Its a difficult time,no sales but am being consistent with youtube. I will never give up on my dream nitaiskuma hadi siku itajipa. Thank you so much Lynn for such episodes. May God continue blessing you.

Phoina said, she has been there done that. Does this mean karma caught up with her too? Sad though!

[@Anna-qf6ed]

I'm salon business myself. I had two employees only when I started, they ganged up and stole from me . I went down ofcourse and closed down, and they jointly opened theirs. They later split and the guy couldn't cope with Nairobi life,he went to the village, dude couldn't cope with town life I once bumped into him and weeee! Amebeat, ni miguka tu amejazakwa mdomo. The lady did well, but she lost millions courtesy of her boyfriend and shylock business. Mimi after closing down I bounced back , this time wiser .

She had assigned someone to make it for me, but there was a huge delay and i was pissed off with the service.

I have been a spa/salon receptionist before, The problem is that the salon employers trust the hairdressers and therapist more than the receptionist/manager (and the most underpaid are the receptionist) yet we are the one managing your business. It's a tough business for sure, especially when employees gang up

[@jaywilint.5408]

Diana you don't employ you don't trust. And for the employees who steal from their employers, shame on them. A day will come, and they will repay every single coin they stole, in this life or after.

[@rosegallus4048]

Yeah! I see it in many salons. Most employees gang up against the manager.

[@ananciataodindo7044]

You are very right because the receptionist ndio are to record when the client cames in and to take the payment

Maybe you ad a receptionist is trust worthy but that does not mean all the other receptionists are trust worthy.

[@patra0kelo]

@@jaywilint.5408 there is no employer on this planet that employs without trust. Not everyone walking in your doors will be honest about their past history, or what they’ll do for you. Employers hope and pray they are getting the best. It is also the employers business to be hands-on.

[@Flourish_today]

In some developed countries, saloon owners are always at the saloon. Incase a customer complains about the service the owner is there to sort the problem. It's their full time job and they have an office system the saloon. They fully run their buisness. We should incorporate these habits so that these employees stop stealing.

[@colletmkc8665]

That's true something i noticed with us is most women business owners just want to be boss babies without actually doing the work 🙂

[@kate4kanini]

Ata kama you are there full time...once this evil spirit of 'walk-out' take's hold, it's inevitable. The employees talk once they leave the salon, and they plan. These are people who have worked together for over 10years. This shit has made some business owners to give up on life.
