About me
Jimi is an international education specialist and hybrid management consultant, with over 30 years’ experience in the formation and implementation of business strategy, delivering service excellence and leading change. He has a unique and highly effective approach to problem-solving and delivering change.
He's a Chartered Manager (CMgr) and Fellow (FMCI) of the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), and highly adept at securing competitive advantage, improving efficiency, and increasing profitability for his clients.
Aptly coined the ‘The Passionate Remolder’ (by the Nigeria Press) – during his Transnational Education (TNE) and entrepreneurial work across Nigeria and Sub-Saharan Africa.
Jimi has a unique way of delivering change and enriching the student journey. He has the vehicle, vision, and passion to ensure that your change journey is pleasurable and that you reach your destination regardless of the terrain. He has a tenacious appetite for getting the best out of people. To this end, he subscribes to the notion that ‘motivation is a frame of mind’. “To get the best out of people we need to fully understand and cultivate their motivations”.
Coupled with his extensive commercial experience, he’s a Senior Lecturer in leadership, strategy, and organisational behaviour at the University of the West of England – where he teaches and nurtures undergraduate and post-graduate students. In his capacity as a university lecturer, he subscribes to the notion that ‘knowledge is power’. “We all have the power to increase our knowledge. Our increased knowledge will give us the power to be better leaders and managers, whether it is managers of resources or leaders of our own destinies”.
His extensive experience has put him in good stead to deal with most of the difficulties facing educational sector and businesses today. Allied with his tenacity for obtaining the best for his clients, his leadership and strategic thinking will drive your business forward to a successful and profitable future.
He is best described as a hybrid leader – a strategic practitioner, a motivator, a change agent, and a professional manager all rolled into one. His desire to deliver value and excellence permeates his everyday life. In his own words, he states – “My word is my bond, my integrity is my currency, my passion and my vision are my assets”.
