Thse Executive Minds (TEXEM) chief executive, Dr Alim Abubakre, says the organisation is setting strategic measures to prepare leaders for the volatile new world order.

 

In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), he said the organisation has introduced initiatives designed to equip leaders with the skills, tools and frameworks needed to navigate the increasingly complex landscape.

 

Abubakre said a scheduled three-week programme would take place between Feb. 8 and Feb. 22, 2025 that combines dynamic live sessions with engaging virtual self-paced learning.

 

He said it would offer leaders actionable strategies to innovate, influence stakeholders effectively, and drive profitable growth, ensuring they thrive even in the face of significant challenges.

 

It has as theme ‘Resilience in a Volatile World: Inspiring Transformation Successfully”.

 

He said participants, engaged in a gamified learning experience through different platforms, whether watching a video, reading an article, reflecting on scenarios, or contributing to discussions, would earn points that contribute to a leaderboard.

 

“This leaderboard fosters healthy competition, with the top five participants celebrated weekly during live sessions and recognised with letters sent to their organisations. This approach not only drives engagement but also instills a culture of continuous learning.

 

“The weekly live sessions, lasting four hours, provide an opportunity to delve deeper into key themes.

 

“Led by renowned faculty such as Ambassador Charles Crawford, Bradley Jones, and Dr TB McClelland Jr., these sessions blend group discussions, interactive games, and faculty presentations to provide participants with a comprehensive learning experience.

“Each session emphasises how leaders can enhance their ability to innovate, influence, and adapt in volatile environments.

 

On the value for money of the programme, Abubakre said: “Innovation is at the core of the programme. Leaders will explore methodologies to rethink traditional business models, optimise resource allocation, and achieve scalable, profitable growth.

 

“For example, participants might engage in scenario-based exercises where they learn to develop agile systems that respond effectively to shifting market demands or talent challenges.

 

“The programme also underscores the importance of influencing stakeholders at all levels. Leaders will gain tools to build coalitions, negotiate effectively, and inspire their teams. These capabilities are particularly crucial for addressing high-stakes challenges such as talent scarcity or currency volatility.

 

“By fostering a mindset of adaptability and collaboration, leaders can ensure their organisations not only survive but thrive.

 

“What makes this programme truly transformative is its commitment to holistic leadership development.”

 

Some past participants of the programme shared their experience on its impact.

 

“I found TEXEM UK to be a very impactful and high powered platform. I’ve learned so much from the faculty here, and I believe that TEXEM UK is redefining the future of executive training and management.

 

“In the past few days, we’ve learned so much about resilience, about how to push our teams even in an economic downturn, and how to manage for profitability and improve performance,” -Amina Yuguga, Journalist and Group Head for Documentaries and Features, Media Trust Group, said.

 

For Niyi Toluwalope, Chief Executive Officer of eTranzact Group: “The programme was incredibly engaging, offering profound insights from exceptional facilitators.

Kayode Awolu, CEO, Jubilee Life Mortgage Bank also said: “The quality of the faculty is tremendous, I wonder how they were able to put together such a tremendous faculty combination; people with diverse work experience, people with diverse knowledge.

 

“Imagine the level of knowledge among the 3 faculty we interacted with in the last 3 days, it’s something out of the blue.”(NAN)
