This is why a lot of "serious" and "career oriented" people come to Lagos. You can't be a local champion....

[💕Asiya 💕 @agirlinlaw]

The environment constantly pushes you to adapt, grow, and perform at a higher level.

Lagos has a way of accelerating your professional development that’s hard to replicate elsewhere.

@NgN67967 @mivauniversity Congratulations 🎉

There’s a reason why your employer hasn’t thought of sending you to Lagos Business School for a course.

And no, it may not be because they dislike you, are playing politics, or are trying to frustrate your career growth.

The uncomfortable reality is that most organizations do not view executive education as a reward. They view it as an investment.

When a company sponsors an employee for a programme at Lagos Business School, it is not simply paying for knowledge. It is making a business decision. The organization is asking itself a simple question:

“If we spend millions of naira on this person’s development, what business value are we likely to get in return?”

That question changes everything.

Many employees approach learning opportunities from a personal development perspective:

“I want to grow.”

“I want exposure.”

“I want to improve myself.”

Those are valid reasons.

But organizations are typically asking:

“Will this person make better decisions?”

“Will they lead larger teams more effectively?”

“Will they improve revenue, productivity, customer experience, innovation, or operational efficiency?”

“Will this investment strengthen our leadership pipeline?”

The difference between those two perspectives is often where the disappointment begins.

Executive education programmes are expensive. Beyond tuition fees, there are costs associated with travel, accommodation, time away from work, and the opportunity cost of having a key employee absent from daily operations.

As a result, organizations are selective. They tend to invest in employees whose impact is already visible.

Employees who consistently solve business problems.

Employees who lead critical projects.

Employees who influence outcomes beyond their job descriptions.

Employees who are already demonstrating the behaviours and responsibilities of the next level.

In many cases, the people who get nominated for executive programmes are not necessarily the smartest people in the room. They are the people whose growth is most likely to create measurable value for the organization.

This is why being hardworking alone is not enough.

Being loyal alone is not enough.

Even being technically competent is not always enough.

The question management often asks is:

“If this employee becomes twice as effective tomorrow, what difference will it make to the business?”

That may sound unfair, but that is how investment decisions are typically made.

So instead of focusing solely on why you have not been selected, it may be more useful to ask a different question:

“Am I currently creating the kind of impact that makes investing in my development an obvious business decision?”

Because the employees who are consistently sponsored for premium development opportunities often have one thing in common:

They have made themselves difficult to ignore.

Their results speak.

Their influence is visible.

Their contributions are measurable.

And their potential is already showing up in the organization’s performance.

The reality is that organizations do not usually spend heavily on potential they cannot see.

They invest in potential that is already producing evidence.

And that is where many career conversations should begin.

Not with, “Why haven’t they sent me to Lagos Business School?”

But with, “What business impact am I creating today that would make sponsoring me tomorrow an easy decision?”

If you're a field sales professional or someone constantly prospecting for new customers, this approach I'll share can significantly improve your customer acquisition efforts.

One thing I've known about marketing and physical prospecting is that it is often easier when done with a colleague.

When you're meeting a prospect for the first time, having someone with you can make a big difference. It gives you more confidence, helps you handle objections better, and keeps the conversation flowing naturally.

Have you ever noticed that there are some meetings you specifically want your business head to attend with you?

Sometimes, you even request their presence because you know it increases your chances of closing the deal.

It is not as though going alone is a bad idea, but there are times you just want that extra boost. The presence of a colleague does that, it gives you that extra layer of confidence.

For new prospecting meetings, if possible, go with a colleague.

The chances of having a more engaging and productive discussion are usually higher.

@MrOlibaba Omoooooooo mehn
This is serious 😳
Maybe they just wanted him to take a bow.

Even as a core salesman, I can never do sales in banking. Recently, a senior friend asked me to come to her side and I told her right there that I can't😔

I doff my hat for those who are there.

I just saw the news that Kunle Edun SAN & Aikpokpo-Martins has instituted Fundamental Rights Suit to stop posting of Corps Members to high-security-risk states.

Interesting times ahead!

@pst_iren @fueki_lee Honourable men are doing all they can to change the narrative about men.

But, we occasionally have men with "glitches" in their firmware, spoiling everyone's efforts and making everyone start from scratch again.

I spoke to a friend who arrived UK 🇬🇧 in 2021 with his family last week.

They bought their first house in the UK 🇬🇧 in 2023.

Bought the second house in the UK 🇬🇧 in 2025.

In the UK 🇬🇧, let no one deceive you; buying house for Mortgage is an asset.

To buy a second house, you need 25% of the property being paid.

Both husband and wife are both working in a highly paid job and even still have a business in Nigeria for them bringing money.

They could not achieve this without the wife helping the husband. They both contribute 100/100 and both own the houses. I don’t even support 50/50, my own is 100/100.

One of the things I think helped them was that they were rich before coming to UK 🇬🇧 as they’ve paid all tuition fees and even 12 months rent before coming in 2021.

If you Japa and be doing Odogwu alone as man. You’ll not achieve anything abroad.

My dad says he always sides with his wife because at least he knows she’s his. We, on the other hand, were just brought home from the hospital and introduced to him. 😂😂

I have taken time to check my life, and I realized i don't like begging.

That is why I'm asking God to never put me in a position where I'll have to beg to survive.

@RecruitmentPq Are there NOCs with this bandwidth of pay?

[jonzing. @ehisssss]

you can't teach CONSIDERATION. it’s either a person NATURALLY thinks about you and how something will affect your feelings, your comfort, your safety, your peace of mind, and your heart or they DON'T.

God, thank you for today 🙇

@RnaudBertrand You are probably the only one or among the last users on this app that when I read their long posts, it doesn’t feel written by AI. It always feels different.

All tweets these days have the same generic tone, wording, after reading a couple, you know. Yours are different.
