Prof. Pawan Budhwar
An assessment of the current socio-economic landscape in Nigeria will reveal rising inflation, weak growth, declining consumer demand, high-interest rates, and organisations struggling to survive, it is evident that every Nigerian at each level needs to implement a strategic change. While senior executives know that this strategic change for organisational renewal has to begin with the leaders occupying influential positions in the nation (Ministers, Commissioners, CEOs, MDs, DGs, Directors, senior managers, etc.), the million pound question is how could this be done successfully?
To ensure that leaders, teams and organisations in Nigeria successfully harness the limited opportunities in these tough times, stimulate innovation and emerge as winners, Texem UK, a reputable consulting firm in the United Kingdom offers a solution that will help leaders achieve this and more. With many years of partnering with Nigerian executives to develop more effective and efficient organizations, TEXEM presents a tailored executive development program titled “Building Successful Organizations that Endure: Aligning Purpose, Process, Performance, and People” to be delivered by Professor Pawan Budhwar, Editor in Chief of British Academy of Management-the world’s leading management Journal. Professor Pawan has offered consultancy services to hundreds of firms globally. This programme is specially designed to ensure that every organisation in Nigeria successfully succeed, create long-lasting organisations which win and ultimately achieve a sustainable competitive edge. For more information, please visit www.texem.co.uk or email exec@texem.co.uk
According to Professor Pawan, “Leaders can learn how to create enduring success by attending the forthcoming programme coming up on the 2nd and 3rd of May at Eko Hotel, Lagos, Nigeria. But in brief, a successful organisation can be defined in a variety of ways depending on a given stakeholder’s viewpoint. It can be defined regarding market leadership, profitability, and reputation, achievement of action/target/goal in a given period, monetary rewards, or positive impact on others, amongst others. There are few ways of building an enduring organisation; these include: by embedding resilience in their businesses, can act fast to respond to forces of change (e.g., competition, demands, technological advancements, etc.), continuously transforming by developing new competence and capabilities. Others are by minimising the gap between intention and needed actions, having proactive and agile leadership, having a strong culture aligned to a clear vision, providing extraordinary returns of key stakeholders on an ongoing basis, amongst others”.
This training will also enable executives network with key stakeholders while receiving world-class training from world renowned Prof. Pawan Budhwar.
It is worth emphasizing that Professor Pawan Budhwar has decades of research on world-class organizational best practice principles which he plans to share with executives at the forthcoming training to ensure attendees build and maintain organisation that will last beyond a lifetime.

Chimenum Mpi – Head of Administration – River State Internal Revenue Service.
I found this program very, very rewarding. In the past I always had a way of thinking that the matter of sustainability related only to policy matters but during this program it has been broken down into the company level and for me there are a number of take-aways that I hope to begin implementing once I get back home.

The organisers, we saw that they prepared for us and they were quite good, quite sociable, quite academic and we had discussion platforms that were divided into groups.On a general note, TEXEM is laying a foundation that will grow like an iroko tree.

Sustainability is very important, not just for now but also for the future. Coming to this program, we have learned much about sustainability and human security which goes beyond carrying arms. It is not just about the physical, it has a lot of other things that come in when you talk about human security and that is where sustainability comes in. I am grateful to TEXEM and of course I will recommend and I look forward to other trainings.
