According to Forbes, Mike Adenuga Junior is the second richest man in Nigeria with an estimated 4.3 billion USD. I am always drawn to biographies of successful entrepreneurs – there is always something to learn especially concerning the crucial decisions they make and what informed those decisions especially when it is not the obvious choice. After the […]
In the 80s, Chinese movies present the style of mentorship that we contemporarily adapt to – a young man seeking revenge stays under the tutelage of an older man; he watches and learns from such man. The old man (normally called the Master) starts the protégé up with seemingly mundane activities that seem not to […]
I keep telling myself that nothing will impress me anymore in personal computing after the unibody experience of the Macbook Pro but was I so wrong? Google offers a wholesome experience at a very affordable minimum price of 199 USD. This time Google has over impressed me at least with the cost of such brilliant […]
Playing a big part in someone achieving his or her dreams is actually priceless. Remember the first walk of your first child – the smile that radiates on your face truly comes from the heart. All the money in the world cannot buy such gift. This is the feeling I get when I get a […]
If you are seriously looking for a corporate job, there are some important things to note: Despite insinuations and perceptions, there are job vacancies everywhere but lack of “right” personnel to fill in the job.

The truth is that I am […]

I was recently invited to a seminar at the Chamber of Commerce on Affordable Housing in Nigeria though I was not able to attend; my colleague was duly represented and sent me the report. I liked what I saw and decided to post it for public consumption. Please, kindly note that I have no connection with the organizers […]
About 4years ago, I read an article blogged by Gbenga Sesan titled something like “Take away your VISA and give us Broadband”. It was actually incisive and revelatory at the same time. He argued that if electric power and broadband became a ubiquity, we would have fewer people on queues in the VISA offices. He […]
I have asked myself several times why it is important to keep score of success and to continuously remind myself about the “why” I do what I do. Exactly September 2010, we started our Project Management (PM) class not having an idea where it will lead us – our mission was simple – provide quality […]
Back in my undergrad days, I wondered why students were crazy about their weights. Whenever weight guys (permit me to call them that) come around chanting; “check your weight” – almost everyone wants to check their weight. It wasn’t as if we had anything to worry about since the school routine forces us to be […]
