• Executive member, Academy of Management

I stand at the forefront of thought leadership and innovation. These memberships are a testament to my commitment to excellence and my continuous pursuit of growth in the ever-evolving business landscape.

With over twenty-five years of seasoned experience as a business and ICT strategist, I've merged the worlds of strategic management, competitive intelligence, marketing, and predictive analytics. This synergy allows me to provide evidence-based forecasts, navigating businesses through various environmental risks and rewards with unparalleled insight and precision.

Recognized early in my journey with the prestigious CIDA International Scholar Award in Ottawa, Canada, in 1991, I was identified as a beacon of academic and professional potential among scholars from Africa and the Middle East. This accolade was not just an acknowledgment of my past achievements but a prophecy of the impact I was destined to make in the world of business and technology strategy.

My narrative is not just a tale of degrees and accolades; it's a living testament to the power of relentless pursuit, diverse knowledge, and strategic innovation. It's about shaping the future of businesses and organizations, one insightful strategy at a time.

A Journey of Learning, Gratitute, and Contribution

My journey began in Nigeria and continued through the academic halls of Canada, where my foundation in architecture and engineering solidified with a master's degree.

Then, my curiosity and quest for freedom and opportunity led me to America, where I pursued further education, earning an MBA in Competitive Intelligence and Analytics, an MS in Information Technology, and a Doctorate in Organizational Leadership and Change Management.

As my career evolved, I shifted my focus to research and writing, exploring the intersections of business and technology. I have contributed to developing strategies in social media, automotive, and healthcare sectors, integrating insights from marketing psychology and diversity studies to support growth and inclusivity without compromising quality and organizational missions.

At the heart of my approach and work is a commitment to continuous learning and meaningful contributions—seeking not just to advance industries but also to create environments where businesses and people thrive.
