‘Leadership must have ideological basis for transformational development’  

The Director-General, Lagos State Public Service Development Centre (PSSDC), Dr. Senukon Olufunmi Ajose-Harrison, has stated that to be truly transformational and sustainable, leadership must have clear ideological basis for development. 
 
He said this at the maiden edition of Lagos State PSSDC’s Leadership for Good Governance series in Lagos. Ajose-Harrison said: “Our world today is undergoing leadership crisis. This has made experts in both the academia and industry to re-examine the need for appropriate and right leadership actions to address good governance and ensure that sustainable and stable societies and organisations evolve and become going concerns. The need for strong and progressive leadership led the management of the centre to moot the idea of a leadership programme.

“A leader can make or break a team. Leaders are people who, through inspiration and personality, drive other people toward a common goal/mission. A leader is someone who can consistently think about the future and keep moving the nation forward.

He needs to share his vision on how to progress, even through tough times. He must have a clear vision and be inspirational. A good leader cannot go unnoticed,” he said.
