Purpose keeps us moving. Challenges shape us. Leadership is using what we learn to solve problems, create value, and leave people and systems better than we found them.

The reason you got promoted into leadership is that you are smart, talented, and you get things done. In fairness to you, you have also become an expert/specialist in your field.
In your new role, you now need to deliver results through others, which is tricky.
You need a vision, buy-in from your team, and to make sure your team can deliver the results you are looking for.
It’s a different kind of skill set.
HISTORY CLASS
Do you know it took 9 years and 2 days before the body of Late Chief Obafemi Awolowo was buried?
Following his death on May 9, 1987, his family and associates decided to preserve his well-embalmed body in a transparent glass casket.
The casket was kept inside a mausoleum at his compound in Ikenne, Ogun State, where visitors could view it.
His body was officially interred in the ground exactly nine years later, on May 11, 1996.
By historical coincidence, the prominent Nigerian statesman Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe passed away on the very same day he was interred!
What a history!!!!
#ThisWeekinUSNigeriaHistory in 1983, America’s Billboard 200 welcomed a groundbreaking sound from Nigeria: King Sunny Adé’s Jùjú Music spent 29 weeks on the U.S. chart, introducing his innovative sound to American audiences.
For 40 years, it stood as the longest-charting album by a Nigerian artist – until another Nigerian artist made history in 2023.
American audiences have long embraced the creativity and innovation coming from Nigeria. Can you guess which album ended King Sunny Adé’s 41-year reign? Drop your guess below!
