Engaging Innovative Ideas for Competitive Edge
Every day, leaders can make or break organisations through their actions and decisions; they set the tone for an organisation’s position in any industry.
The role of the strategic leader that is innovative and agile cannot be overemphasised for success in a fast-paced and challenging operating context such as that of Nigeria.
A creative and strategic leader would assure survival, achieve superlative competitive advantage and drive profitable growth of the company.
Organisational success is a moving target and changing trends such as; new government policies by the recently appointed Nigerian Ministers, depressed customer demand and the fluctuating price of oil in the international markets makes it harder to compete, thus, the need for strategic leadership for results driven change management.
Transformation is hard, and a digital one is even harder, but with; competent leadership, relevant and timely capability building, empowered teams, and effective communication, a digital transformation is more likely to succeed. Every waking day, visionary leaders are trying to figure out how to align strategy with innovation. Leaders need to identify, capture and deliver on great ideas for their organisations to survive, grow and thrive.

That is why organisers of the Texem conferences are inviting business and public sector leaders to join them at their forthcoming training, to learn about how to align strategy with innovation and what essential breakthrough concepts that managers should possess to lead digital innovations successfully.
