Nigerian leaders and chief executive officers have been urged to make maximum use of their remote workforce to achieve greater productivity in 2024.
The call was made by Caroline Lucas, the Director, Special Projects of the British leadership development organisation, TEXEM UK on the organisation’s website www.texem.co.uk.
Lucas said towards this end, TEXEM would organise a hybrid programme for the leaders both in Nigeria and the UK.
“The programme tagged “Effective Leadership in a Distributed World: Pioneering Enduring Legacies” will equip organisations for effective remote leadership in a changing work landscape.
“The programme emphasises building trust, enhancing productivity, and optimising leadership communication to boost morale and optimise performance.
“This programme inspires leaders in better ways on how to help their organisations gain a competitive edge by optimising their remote workforce,” she explained.
Lucas said that through improved competence on how to enhance remote leadership, the programme would help spur better employee retention and save costs for organisations.
She added that the programme from March 25 to March 27, would improve organisational resilience, ensuring lasting success and sustainability.
Faculty expected to deliver papers at the programme include Prof. Roger Delves,
Professor of Practice in Leadership, and Associate Dean Ashridge Executive Education at Hult International Business School.
