Transforming Nigerian Organisations - The HR Imperative

Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Organisation and administration - Miscellaneous, , language: English, abstract: An ancient writer once quipped; 'For everything, there is a season, a time for every activity on earth'. We are living in a time where people are in desperate need for change in all sectors of life, whether in education, transport or in business. Nigerian organizations must not be left out of these changes because our organizations have been an object of ridicule both locally and internationally. Our organizations are either trapped in debt crisis or poor management, unskilled workers or blurry vision. On that note, business experts have proposed different transformational theories that will boost their organization's efficiency as well output in terms of profit. But some of these theories have failed to yield the required change. Therefore, I have proposed the Human Resource imperative as the last cup of restoration that organizations in Nigeria need to cause a dramatic turn-around of her businesses.
