The Leadership Clinic(14th August 2011) Decision Making: The Responsiblity of leadership

Decision Making: The Responsibility of Leadership

The first major step to being useful in life is to debate on what you want. What you want must not be based on what you studied but rather what you have passion for.
What you want to do may be kicked against by people but if you stick to it, they will soon come over to your side. So you need audacity, confidence and deepened skill to stay on course especially as a leader.

Hon. Linus Okorie said..

Building followership is also critical to building leadership. Your followers determine the decisions you make. Make decisions you will be responsible for.
Political leadership must be viewed as a tool for service and not as poverty alleviation vehicle. Therefore put up a structure that can sustain you in and out of office because no hungry man can resist temptation for long.

Another eminent Nigerian was there, Ms Thelma Ekiyor, Executive Director TY Danjuma Foundation, and she shared this...

Be willing to go through the process
Be Unique
Follow your passion
Be a leader from where you are, don't wait for positions.
Women must make the extra efforts to be outstanding and take up leadership roles
Our schools groom exam takers not leaders, so you find avenues to groom your leadership capital such as GOTNI provides

Mrs Ijeoma Nwafor had this to say...

Ideas rule the world. Rather than waiting for Jobs, begin now. Think you own ideas, write that business plan.
 Our leaders are exact reflection of ourselves. Until we change or be the change we want, our leaders will always be the same.

Dr. Ejike Orji advised and asked...

Begin to do your strategic vision exercise.

Ask yourself, “In 5 years, where do I want be”? “What space do I want to occupy”?
