A DISRUPTIVE STRATEGY For fighting CORRUPTION

I reckon that about 90% of Nigerian institutions in the private and public sector have the words Integrity or Transparency listed as one of their corporate values, yet Nigeria is still listed among the most corrupt countries in the world, and if the recent statements of the President and the Vice President are anything to go by – we are very corrupt. So it means that I would be stating the obvious to say that most people just put up those fancy value statements to fulfil all righteousness, tick boxes or perhaps to even create the false impression that they should be trusted.

5 Tips To find Your Personal Purpose

Invest some time in figuring out your real story and you'll be happier, less stressed and in the right job. By Richard Hytner

What’s your story? Your real story, I mean. Not some carefully curated version of yourself designed to impress friends on Facebook or to look more employable on LinkedIn, useful shortcuts though these social media provide to people wanting to get to know you.

The most authentic and enduring brands are built from the inside out. The least convincing, destined for a short shelf life, are those that believe they can communicate their way to greatness. That’s not branding, it’s spin, and people see that for what it is – manipulative, too good to be true, an over promise that the brand can only ever fail to deliver.

World Must Work Together To Ensure Africa's Young Can Seize Their Potential And Thrive, Says Bill Gates

PRETORIA, South Africa, 18 July 2016, -/African Media Agency (AMA)/- Africa's future rests in the hands of its youth - and every effort must be made to ensure they thrive, philanthropist and entrepreneur Bill Gates said in South Africa today (EDITORS: SUNDAY, 17 July 2016).

Delivering the 2016 Nelson Mandela Annual Lecture at the University of Pretoria (Mamelodi campus), Gates said he was optimistic about the future of the continent - because of its young people.
Pointing out that Africa was demographically the world's youngest continent - in the next 35 years, it is estimated that 2-billion babies will be born in Africa and by 2050, 40% of the world's children will live in Africa - Gates said he believed Africa's youth "can be the source of a special dynamism".

Five Reasons Why Leaders Fail

Is the lesson from history that leaders succeed until they fail? You might think fixed-terms presidencies or other forced retirement options help to avoid eventual inevitable failure, allowing leaders such as Nelson Mandela to quit while they’re ahead. His laudable example is an exception; we often face leadership disappointment, even in the most promising people.

Indeed, one might be tempted to wonder if we can just skip the problem altogether and go leaderless. We see this in families, sports clubs, music groups, and even in business. Several companies such as the makers of Gore-Tex have pioneered self-managing teams with fluid sharing of responsibility, and the minimal or episodic involvement of leaders.

Solomon's Turn Up Party. January 9th, 2016

What better way to start your year than to be with the 3 most important f's in life; family, friends and fans. It was a memorable day as people turned in to turn up with Solomon Ojeagbase on his Birthday party. The atmosphere was cool, in an exotic location in Ikoyi, Lagos State. Foreshore Harbours (Boat Club) was the venue, A place almost everyone who came was visiting for the first time, it is a harbour for private ships owned by some of the most ostentatious Nigerians living in Lagos State.
We could have easily opted to go on a boat cruise but we had more people than the yacht's can carry, was never an option though I don't like water so I wouldn't want to have my party on a boat well except for my wedding anniversary. I will also like to own my own Yacht one day but as my Jewish friend and mentor advised "you don't have to buy a cow to get milk", you can simply lease it when you need it and save yourself the headache of maintenance.
