TEXEM UK unveils transformational programmе for Nigerian leaders

By Bashir Rabe Mani

TEXEM UK, a renowned worldwide learning and development firm, has set its sights on preparing Nigerian and African business leaders to flourish in today’s demanding and uncertain business market.

Caroline Lucas, TEXEM’s Director of Special Projects, stressed the critical need for strategic CEOs to design winning strategies that will enrich their businesses and organisations in a statement on its website (www.texem.co.uk).

They claim that these tactics have the potential to aid leaders in making lucrative judgements even in challenging times.

“This programme is actionable and would reflect the tangible risks that organisations operating in Nigeria and Africa currently face,” the statistic added.

With the world witnessing unexpected changes, the corporate climate has grown more volatile than ever before.

Given this reality, TEXEM is providing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for top executives and organisational leaders to get practical skills and actionable insights through its interactive learning experience dubbed “Winning in Turbulent Times.”

“The programme, scheduled to take place from July 12th to 13th, 2023, at The Wheatbakеr Hotеl in Ikoyi, Lagos, aims to help participants develop strategies that foster sustainable success amidst uncertainty.

“TEXEM’s recognised faculty is composed of distinguished professionals, and participants will have the opportunity to engage in a professional exchange with critical partners and colleagues.

“This invaluable interaction will offer fresh perspectives and enrich the learning experience, providing participants with the necessary tools to navigate the complexities of the modern business landscape,” the statement announced.

Organisations in Nigeria confront tremendous problems, with the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war affecting countries globally.

Widespread insecurity, skyrocketing inflation, high capital costs, supply chain interruptions, and emerging cybersecurity risks have exacerbated Nigeria’s already complicated economic environment.

These difficulties have resulted in significant currency volatility, low or negative GDP growth, and declining government and company income.

The flight of skilled workers and falling productivity compound the difficulties that businesses face.

As Nigeria’s corporate landscape faces numerous challenges, TEXEM UK’s programme provides learners with a timely and much-needed opportunity to educate themselves with the tools needed to overcome obstacles.

According to the release, by attending the Lagos programme, top executives and leaders would obtain a competitive advantage in managing their organisations, guiding them towards a future distinguished by successes under adversity.

The program’s complete methodology comprises group and individual impactful activities, continuous learning, games, observation practise, and self-reflection.

TEXEM believes that learning should be enjoyable and engaging, and by utilising this creative approach, participants will acquire insights into establishing development possibilities and crafting organisational strategies to flourish in times of change.

The use of case studies through the tested and verified methodology is one of the program’s main attractions.

Prof. Rodria Laline, Founding Director of Harvard University’s Maximise Your Board’s Potential Programme, will lead other distinguished professors.

Laline brings a wealth of knowledge to the programme as a previous Visiting Professor at major universities such as INSEAD, IMD, and IESE, as well as his work as Co-Founder of Global Chipcard Alliance.

Having worked with industry titans such as IBM, ING, Hewlett-Packard, and Oracle Corporation during her term as CEO of Global Research and Development, Prof. Lalinе’s knowledge is expected to provide attendees with significant insights.

Furthermore, his advising role to the Dutch Prime Minister and involvement as a board member of the Opеn Softwarе Foundation strengthen his status as an industry expert.

“We assigned this programme to equip leaders with the ability to make informed decisions quickly and adapt to unexpected challenges,” Lalinе explained.

“By improving their analytical rigour and managing ambiguity better, participants will be better equipped to lead their organisations to sustainable success.”

A few of TEXEM’s previous delegations from Nigeria have the following testimonials to share about TEXEM’s UK programmes:

“The programme is exceptional; it’s a world-class institute; looking at the quality of materials and the quality of the facilitators, I think it’s a world-class programme; it could be anywhere in the world, and it’s a good standard,” Glory Idehеn, Head of E-Training, C.B.N., said.

“The content of the programme has been rich and educational, refreshing, enlightening, and thought-provoking. I enjoyed this programme, and I am looking forward to another programme,” Andy Uwеjеyan, Managing Director of A&J Construction Company Ltd., remarked.

“It’s the first time I’m doing a programme in Nigeria, and it’s actually very interesting. The first thing I liked about it was the diversity of the participants and the quality of the network.

“I also liked the edgy conversations we had with Christian and Alim. It’s really thought-provoking.” Effiong Okon, Opеrations Director, Sеplat, rеmarkеd

TEXEM delegate Hakееm Muriokunola, Lagos State Head of Service, had this to say: “It’s a very insightful and worthy programme on leadership and execution Management. It has opened my eyes to understand that you also have to be an effective follower to be an effective leader.

“I need to surround myself with people better than me and learn from them.”.

“It has been an insightful and thought-provoking experience.” I have learned new ways of doing things, especially in leadership, ADR, and reaching an agreement in negotiation,” Bolanle Oniyangi, Coordinating Secretary Tax Appeal Tribunal, said.

Prof. Olatunde Atusanya The Hon. Commissioner of the Tax Appeal Tribunal stated, “TEXEM is a good platform for advancing leadership training, and I would recommend TEXEM for any organisations or institutions that are desirous of improving their workforce in leadership and strategic policy-making.”

“It is a wonderful organisation.” I must confess that they are very organised. Their staff is really warm; they are very committed, and you can see the way they do their job is with every ounce of enthusiasm.

“I’ve enjoyed the orderliness of the organisers.” I’ve enjoyed the presentations of the consultants. I’ve enjoyed the practicability of the consultants…
