Commerce (NBCC) on Tuesday, July 28, 2020, hosted the second edition in its
Sharing Experiences Series. The President and Chairman of Council of the NBCC,
Mr Kayode Falowo said during his welcome address that the series was designed
to provide a platform for the world to learn from the experience of exemplary
leaders and achievers in the organized private sector.
The July 2020 edition with
the theme 'Building a Brand' had as Guest Speaker, the Chairman of
Zenith Bank Plc, Mr Jim Ovia CON. During his presentation, Mr Ovia emphasized
that successful brands were
built through innovation, he also said that adversity had the power to push
people to adapt, innovate and that the mantra for a time such as this should be 'survival of the most creative'.
Speaking on building the Zenith Bank brand,
he said global organizations and brands that had lasted 100 years are his major
inspiration and reason Zenith Bank had a long-term succession plan. Mr Ovia
shared during the Q & A session that his personal methodology for brand
building was honesty and that organizations who want to build lasting brands
must be transparent in their dealings, respect corporate governance and always
honour signed contracts.
Mr Ovia encouraged entrepreneurs to keep
pushing despite the seemingly harsh conditions of Nigeria's economy and think
creatively to create brands and problem-solving solutions that will be
disruptive and change the game across sectors. As parting advice to
organizations and individuals, he said, 'the best assets of any company are the
people' and hiring the right people on your team will ensure the organization's
brand goals are met.
