‘Adaptive leadership, key to secured, prosperous, inclusive future for all’

Dr. Susan Ake, Managing Director, Lifesquare Leadership Initiative and Country Director, UNIPGC Nigeria, says with adaptive leadership the country can create a future that is secured, prosperous, and inclusive for Nigerians.

Speaking Monday in Abuja at a summit themed: “The role of adaptive leadership in mitigating the impact of insecurity,” Ake described adaptive leadership as a unique approach that promotes flexibility, responsiveness, and resilience in the face of adversity.

“It encourages leaders to listen, learn, and leverage their resources to create effective solutions.

“In the context of insecurity, adaptive leadership becomes a beacon of hope, enabling us to navigate the stormy waters with a sense of direction, courage, and optimism.

“Over the next few days, we will delve deeper into what adaptive leadership entails, how it can be fostered, and how it can help us mitigate the impacts of insecurity.

“We will hear from experts, engage in thought-provoking discussions, and share practical strategies that can be implemented in our respective spheres of influence.

“As we embark on this journey, I urge each one of you to approach these discussions with an open mind, a willingness to learn, and a commitment to action. Let us use this summit as a platform to generate ideas, foster collaborations, and catalyze change,” she said.
