Mental Health Awareness Month invites us to pause and reflect on what a “good day” truly looks like, for ourselves and for those around us.

This year’s theme, More Good Days, Together, reminds us that mental wellbeing is shaped through connection, understanding, and timely support.

By listening more closely, reaching out more often, and showing up with compassion, we can help make more good days possible, not just at work, but in life as a whole. 💚

Important Regulatory Update for Businesses in Zimbabwe

Statutory Instrument 76 of 2026 has been gazetted, introducing an amendment to the Companies and Other Business Entities (Re-Registration) Regulations.

The re-registration deadline has been extended from 20 April 2026 to 20 April 2028.

This amendment, issued by the Minister of Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs, provides companies and other business entities with additional time to complete mandatory re-registration in terms of the Companies and Other Business Entities Act [Chapter 24:31].

What this means for businesses:
- Relief for entities that had not yet completed re-registration.
- Continued opportunity to regularise corporate records.
- Reduced risk of penalties associated with non-compliance.

Businesses are encouraged not to delay and to use this extension to ensure full compliance well ahead of the new deadline.

For guidance or assistance with re-registration and compliance, please feel free to contact us:

Many organisations express a desire for culture change, yet few are fully prepared for what it takes to shift the behaviours, mindsets, and systems that drive real transformation.

Across industries, companies roll out new strategies, restructure teams, or invest in technology and still find that the outcomes do not stick.

The reason is clear:
Sustainable change cannot be built on top of an unchanged culture.

Culture is often dismissed as “the soft stuff,” yet it remains one of the most complex and influential drivers of organisational success and the key differentiator between organisations that evolve and those that remain stagnant.

When culture is misaligned with strategy, organisations commonly experience resistance to new ways of working, declining engagement, leadership disconnects, slow adoption and short‑lived transformation outcomes.

However, when culture is intentionally shaped, embedded, and reinforced, momentum accelerates, trust strengthens, and teams are able to align behind a shared purpose.

There is a clear science and a structured architecture behind enabling meaningful, measurable, and lasting culture change. Yet many organisations underestimate just how transformative the process becomes when guided by the right expertise and frameworks.

For organisations navigating change, growth, or strategic renewal, this may be the ideal moment to reassess whether the current cultural foundations are supporting or hindering performance.

Organisations that are serious about culture change benefit significantly from expert support, structured methodologies, and evidence‑based frameworks.

If your organisation is ready to strengthen its culture in order to unlock sustained performance, alignment, and transformation, our team is available to support you through a tailored, professional engagement.

Contact us to discuss how our Human Resources advisory services can support your transformation goals.

Business failure is rarely sudden. It is almost always the result of warning signs that were ignored, misunderstood, or discovered too late. Understanding these early indicators can save a business long before it reaches crisis level.

1. Poor Governance
Ineffective leadership, weak oversight, and poor succession planning often create blind spots that eventually lead to operational collapse. When governance fails, everything else follows.

2. Emotional Attachment
Some businesses hold onto loss‑making activities out of habit or sentiment instead of making strategic cuts (common in owner-managed businesses). This delays tough decisions and accelerates decline.

3. Failure to Adapt to Market Trends
In a fast‑changing environment, companies that resist change quickly lose relevance. Whether it's technology, competition, or environmental shifts slow adapters fall behind.

4. Inaccurate Financial Reporting
Poor financial systems and unreliable reporting conceal true performance, delaying crucial decision‑making. Leadership often reacts after the damage is already done.

5. Capital Mismanagement
From undercapitalisation to overtrading, many companies fail because they stretch beyond their financial capacity, often driven by poor planning or unchecked ambition.

6. Resistance to Change
Even with clear evidence that old methods are failing, some teams resist new processes, strategies, or technologies. This resistance turns minor operational issues into major strategic failures.

All these issues have one thing in common, they are preventable, but only with early intervention.

Corporate distress does not start in the Finance Department; it starts in the boardroom, in culture, and in leadership decisions that go unchallenged.

Let’s talk before the warning signs turn into a crisis. If you recognise even one of these indicators in your organisation, now is the time to act.

Reach out for a Business Health Check. Let’s stabilise your operations, strengthen governance, and position your business for sustainable recovery and growth.

Your company’s survival may depend on the decisions you make today.

24/03/2026

One of the most transformative and often underestimated elements of Zimbabwe’s 2026 tax reforms is the tightening of rules governing VAT on imported services. For many businesses, this will be a seismic shift, especially as cross‑border digital and professional services become core to daily operations.

Under the 2026 framework, VAT on imported services must now be paid in the same currency used for the underlying transaction, and non‑compliance will trigger penalties and interest.

This seemingly simple requirement has far-reaching implications:

- VAT must be settled immediately at the point of importation of the service.
- Businesses must track each cross‑border service invoice with currency-specific precision.
- ZIMRA is closing long-standing loopholes where companies delayed or under-reported VAT on services procured in foreign currency.

With Zimbabwe’s increasing reliance on offshore service providers like cloud platforms, digital marketing suites, software subscriptions and IT security tools, this change impacts nearly every sector.

If you need a customized VAT-on-imported-services readiness checklist, a cross-border compliance playbook, tax advisory, tax compliance or sector-specific advisory on the new reforms, reach out. Let’s ensure your business remains compliant, agile, and competitive in Zimbabwe’s evolving tax landscape.
