The Digital Board Is Live for Tekedia Mini-MBA Second Edition

2

The Digital Board has gone up for the second edition of Tekedia Mini-MBA. I will begin week 1 with “ The Purpose of Firms, and Growth Through Innovation”, then in week 2 will be joined by futurists from TAFFD USA.  The four futurists will handle “Exponential Technologies and Business Opportunities in the Age of Singularity”, essentially helping participants to quickly see a BIG world. In a time when people are demoralized because of a pandemic, I want participants to see a future that is full of abundance and opportunities. The following futurists will lead that conversation:

Edward Hudgins, PhD

Chogwu Abdul, PhD

Gennady Stolyarov II

Brent Ellman

On June 22, all registered members should visit the page, to begin the excursion to knowledge.

Registration continues for the second edition of Tekedia Mini-MBA – register here. Four months, online, self-paced, and costs $140 or N50k.

Digital Board for Tekedia Mini-MBA Edition 2 (June 22 – Oct 22)

74

Dear Colleagues,

Greetings. On behalf of our faculty from around the world, I am honoured to welcome you to this page, for Tekedia Mini-MBA second edition. Beginning June 22, we will start a  journey to co-learn and co-share on the mechanics of markets, innovation, business operations, and growth. We will examine emerging business frameworks, models and technologies, across different domains and sectors, and how they are redesigning the ordinances of economic architectures, industrial systems and competitiveness. This knowledge excursion will last for four months. I expect it to deepen our capabilities and advance the companies we work for. Simply, we will innovate, not just invent, to fix market frictions in our sectors.

This table below will have active links, in successive weeks, for you to navigate to the specific contents. You will see weekly overviews, written materials, flash cases, labs, videos and challenge assignments. There is a section to ask questions and discuss the topics; you can always email.

Ndubuisi Ekekwe To Speak In The Harvesters

0

Markets are in  a state of severe paralysis. But we cannot fold our hands. We need to open the playbooks, innovate and unlock new drivers for growth. I will be the guest of the Harvesters on June 3rd at 9pm Lagos time to examine how Innovation can bring Growth through new vistas. I invite you to join us via the Zoom link provided.

How do we find Growth in Nigeria? What are the drivers? Where do we need to invest? Besides the evolving pandemic-fit sectors like agro, ecommerce and healthcare, do we have clarity on the long-term market-fit sectors?

Let’s spend the evening together for a deep conversation.

Tekedia Mini-MBA Week 17 Session Is On Planning Careers

0

This week, the session is on planning your career. This is necessary after the paralysis of job dislocation due to Covid-19. This was not originally in the syllabus of Tekedia Mini-MBA edition 1, but we do think that some of our members may need clarity on this issue. A business leader and Tekedia Mini-MBA Faculty, Captain Ola Olubawale, is leading the session. With a career covering global energy giants, working in Nigeria and Australia, and leading global teams, Captain explains with frameworks and life lessons on how we can create that future we hope to predict.

Our goal here is to use a testimonial to push our members not to leave most things to chance. Like I noted in my introduction video, one of the reasons I decided to get a PhD in engineering was to buy career insurance. Yes, I am yet to see any person with a PhD in any of the core four engineering areas (EE, Mech, Chem & Civil) in Africa that does not have a job! If everything fails, there is always a university to teach somewhere in Africa. 

Get to the Board for the session.

The next edition of Tekedia Mini-MBA begins June 22.

Meet Tekedia Mini-MBA Faculty for Business & Commercial Law: Chukwuemeka Mbah

0

Our Faculty for Business & Commercial Law holds LLB  from UNN Nsukka, BL from Nigerian Law School and Master of Laws from University of Debrecen. He has practiced law in Nigeria before he moved to North America where he works in one of the largest global manufacturers. 

In this session, Tekedia Institute Faculty Chukwuemeka Mbah explains and educates on critical components of business and commercial law, covering intellectual property, contracts, conflict resolution, labour and employment, and more. Both in the written materials and videos, our Faculty takes project leaders, business leaders, CEOs, founders, professionals and entrepreneurs on the critical mechanics of law in business. 

With cases, constructed for lay people like most of us, he helps us to understand in practical ways what to look for, and how to ensure that the law works for us. His perspectives are both global and local. 

Tekedia Mini-MBA begins June 22. Join Mr Mbah and other faculty here.

Tomorrow, we will present our Ecommerce faculty.
