The Sage Center for Leadership Excellence (SageCLE) has highlighted the importance of ethics as a fundamental pillar for business sustainability. At an event in Lagos, founder Mutiu Sunmonu emphasized the need for leaders to consciously adopt ethical practices to avoid straying from their goals. Sunmonu contends that personal preferences should not overshadow one's leadership capacity, stressing that ethics should be a primary focus for entrepreneurs and business owners seeking growth and performance.
Dr. Chinwe, SageCLE's executive director, further elaborated on the significance of ethics in leadership. She stated that a nation or business thrives on integrity, ethics, and accountability. According to her, Nigeria's lack of progress can be attributed to the absence of ethics education in schools. To address this issue, SageCLE has launched a project targeting schools, with the aim of educating young minds about ethics.
This initiative seeks to instill a sense of direction and purpose in the nation's future leaders, emphasizing the critical role of mentoring younger generations in maintaining integrity and ethics. By doing so, SageCLE aims to nurture a competitive economy and promote sustainable business practices in Africa.
