Taking the Lead

Leadership is all about taking the lead, setting the pace and blazing the trail in a given task. Leadership is not occupying a seat; it’s accomplishing a feat. It’s not occupying a position; it’s making outstanding contributions.
- Dr. David Oyedepo

I have learned from CLD that leadership is not a position, it is about influencing people and creating positive change, and leadership is not about authority, it is about service. I thank the ALDC team, as this is the best, most organized and orderly course I have ever attended. Today, I have become much more valuable than I was in the organisation.

Everything I have wanted answers to have been answered during this programme. Business-wise, it has opened up a new horizon for me and I have transformed from being a transactional leader to a transformational leader. In all, the lessons learned have gone a long way in making me a better leader and enhanced my status and capacity for my entrepreneurial and nation building drives.
