Make Intrapreneurs THRIVE
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on September 18, 2018, 4:36 AMAs you pursue mission in your business, you would thrive if you make your company as a place where others can start companies in your company. In Google today, you can count many companies which have been started within Google and still fully resident in Google. As the world celebrates entrepreneurs, we must always remember that keeping many as intrapreneurs are just as impactful.
The fastest growing fintech in Nigeria is fully resident in a Nigerian bank. That should not take away the fact that people built it inside that bank. The key mission is bringing extremely committed together – they could be inside a big company or just forming a new one. How Nigeria, Nigerians and Nigerian companies make that possible will determine our ability to “restore the dignity of man” with good jobs and welfare.
