Kaduna Business School (KBS) was established in 2000 to provide an opening for systematic advancement in management, leadership and entrepreneurship. Since its inception, KBS has been instrumental in driving the policies and actions needed to tip the scales in favour of managers and leaders who are eager to learn and improve their chances of success. Management is getting more complex while the real essence of leadership is understood and practised only by a select few. The world is essentially a network of thousands of organizations responsible for everything that touches our lives. Societies prosper when organizations are run effectively from top to bottom. The role of Kaduna Business School has been to narrow the gaps in capacity within organizations; to this end we are helping to raise knowledge inventory and also helping to make the conversation between government, business and NGOs more coherent with a view to widening the coalition for policy development and execution.
Message from the Director General
Welcome and thank you for your keen interest in the Kaduna Business School.
The Institution was founded fifteen years ago upon the principle that learning is a life-long endeavour and the job is never done and any situation can be improved no matter how impressive or how troubling it may appear to be.
KBS has been involved in several large projects with national and international coverage, its memberships with several national and international professional bodies give KBS additional leverage, a guarantee of quality and world-class benchmark for its programmes in terms of facilities, technology and delivery.
We feel honoured by our achievements but we are also excited about the future. Keen observers can perceive when the world moves up another gear and I believe the greatest challenge to organizations is systemically linked to a failure to perceive change, this inevitably leads to the difficult process of adaptation. What we do is to keep your senses alive and your mind ticking relentlessly that way you will always know where the world is headed and what the new priorities should be.
