1. What have you found most challenging as a leader?

Moving people from a fixed mindset to a productive thinking and deployment of potentials for problem solving

2. How did you become a leader? Can you please briefly tell the story?

My leadership journey started in my Secondary School when I was appointed the School Assistant Senior Prefect, Chapel Prefect and Science Laboratories Prefect.

The trainings and coaching by the Youths Corps Members especially Mr. Taiwo and Mr. Matte ignited the Spirit of Leadership in me.

It grew from there. I later form Students' Leadership Forum that have grown to the present Teenagers and Youths Leadership and Entrepreneurship Development Organization - LEADPAC Foundation.

3. How do you structure your work days from waking up to going to sleep?

My next day begins in the evening of the previous day.

I evaluate all my activities at the end of each day. My daily set goals and the results.

At 4:30am is my quite time with my God. My day begins with my priority list that carries my day goals and the places to visit to accomplish my planned activities.

In the evening, I sit down after evening meal to evaluate my activities and write down my achievements, challenges and setbacks.

Then it's bedtime.

4. What's a recent leadership lesson you've learned for the first time or been reminded of?

I have been reminded of being consistent and determined in all I do, especially in Business Management.

5. What's one book that has had a profound impact on your leadership so far? Can you please briefly tell the story of how that book impacted your leadership?

The Spirit of Leadership by Dr. Myles Munroe.

I had thought that being a leader is a physical exercise of your mental capacity until I read that book and found out that Leadership is not a position, nor charismatic. But Leadership is a Spirit. Something beyond this realm of mortal.

It changed my perspective how I treat beyond and 8n all my training session. I apprach every class from my inner man.

The Story 9f a young Jewish Boy called Jesus Christ of Nazareth. His childhood, Teenage exploits and His Excellent Leadership Style.
