EYE ON THE BALL, NOT BALL ON THE EYE

EYE ON THE BALL, NOT BALL ON THE EYE - Personal Development from Tennis Court I have admired the game of Tennis for a very long time and had considered sometime in the future. In 2017, I was fortunate to have a direct boss who plays Tennis well. My boss motivated me and purchased some kits in preparation to start learning. Somehow, I procrastinated and never got to start learning. In 2020 however, as we grateful eased out of the COVID-19 lockdown, I switched and decided to change direction. Emerging from the sedentary lockdown, I was fresh, plum and a bit above my expected body mass index. It was apparent that I had to increase physical exercise. Taking advantage of this situation, I brought out my scanty kit, went out in search of a court and a coach and I started learning in November 2020.  Now, it is November 26, 2022, two years on. I decided to sit back to reflect and document what my journey has been like on the court and some of the lessons I draw from my trainings. I a...

A Bug in the System and the Weakest Link Mantra; Lessons from COVID-19 for Resilient Global Supply Chain

-
ABSTRACT: Building a resilient global supply chain is a prominent theme in the recommended strategies for managing disruptions of the scale brought by the COVID-19 Pandemic. This work is a systematic review of the history of pandemics in the past 100 years and their relation with the global supply chain and the economy at the time.

In the review, the causes of the pandemics and impacts via trade routes and other economic factors were compared. We also compared the pandemic severities and economic impacts on most affected countries. Tracking the global supply chains route and travel routes is a key lesson for countries trying to contain and mitigate future pandemics. The COVID-19 challenge has begun to reengineer global supply chains and we concluded with a recommendation of re-identifying the weakest links, consider distributed or d...

The Mix and Paradox; Change is Transformation!

Change.  I like the word and the concept of change. It gives me the opportunity to begin in new and better ways. It puts me on the good platform on a game plan. It quickens my pulse to being proactive and gives me the flavours of adventure. But what is change? What changes and what makes change(s) worthwhile? Transformation . This implies a marked change in form, nature and appearance. I love transformation because it is organic, introspective and still dynamic. That is when you look at transformation in the form of transformational leadership style. Who is transforming what and for what or for who? Enough of this! Change or Transformation, grammatically and in practice, you hardly talk about or do one without the other. In context they are actually synonyms! The Mix and the Paradox. For me it amazing to see the hypes for change and transformation in Nigeria 2015 and the political parties. It seems to me that grammatical physiology of this two words is literally p...
