LRA Strengthens Change Management Capacity to Drive Reforms

The Liberia Revenue Authority is strengthening its change management capacity to support implementation of its recently launched Corporate Strategic Plan and ongoing institutional reforms.

The initiative recognizes that successful reforms depend on employees understanding, adopting, and taking ownership of institutional changes. Under the leadership of Commissioner General and Lead Change Champion James Dorbor Jallah, the LRA is building internal capacity to effectively manage and sustain its transformation agenda.

As part of this effort, three LRA officials recently completed a two-week refresher training and certification on Managing Change in a Technology-Driven Revenue Authority in South Africa.

They are Rufus Mahn, Commissioner for Internal Audit, Robert Kamei, Assistant Commissioner for Transformation and Modernization and Benedict Tokpa Danuweli, Manager for Enterprise Change Management.

Building on its recently completed Enterprise Change Management Framework, the LRA will expand engagement nationwide to help develop its Enterprise Change Management Strategy, informed by findings from the ongoing change readiness assessment.

The initiative forms part of the LRA’s broader transformation agenda to build a modern, technology-driven revenue administration while ensuring employees are prepared to embrace, drive, and sustain institutional reforms.

The Liberia Revenue Authority (LRA), through its Customs Department, has begun the second phase of a weeklong refresher training in Ganta, Nimba County, to strengthen Customs officers’ technical capacity, improve border management, facilitate legitimate trade, and support domestic revenue mobilization.

The practical, skills-based training forms part of the LRA’s ongoing professional development and Customs modernization efforts, aimed at improving the consistent application of Customs laws and procedures and enhancing service delivery at ports and borders nationwide.

More than 30 participants from Customs Business Offices across Liberia are attending the training, along with representatives from the Communication, Media and Public Affairs Section, Taxpayer Services Division, and Internal Audit Department.

Participants are receiving instruction in Customs valuation, Harmonized System (HS) tariff classification, rules of origin, Customs examination procedures, and other core Customs processes. The Participants are also undergoing assessments to measure their baseline knowledge and track improvements in their understanding of the course content.

Speaking at the opening on Tuesday, Assistant Commissioner for Customs Ports Operations Edwin F. Kendema urged participants to actively engage facilitators, ask questions, and use the opportunity to deepen their knowledge and practical skills.

Kendema said the LRA’s investment in staff development should translate into stronger technical competence, consistent application of Customs procedures, and improved service delivery to importers, Customs brokers, and other stakeholders.

The training forms part of the Customs Department’s broader capacity-building and modernization efforts to strengthen technical competencies, promote consistent application of Customs procedures, and enhance compliance with national laws and international Customs standards.
