The Kaduna Business School says it will host Dr. Dakuku Peterside, Nigeria’s leading authority in public sector turnaround, public policy, and crisis leadership, for a book-signing and interactive dialogue titled "Unlocking Leadership: Beyond the Horizon."

In a statement from Haggai Danjuma, the event, scheduled for Tuesday, March 24, 2026, at the premises of the Business School in Kaduna, will focus on strategies for effective leadership in uncertainty and complex environments , drawn from his works and experience in the public sector.

Danjuma revealed that the former chairman of the Association of African Maritime Administrations (AAMA) holds a Doctorate in Organisational Behaviour, specializing in Corporate Political Strategy. He has facilitated sessions on public policy and public sector reforms at Lagos Business School and serves as an adjunct lecturer at several of the nation’s leading business schools.

According to him, "the former Director-General/Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), brings over two decades of experience in public sector leadership, public policy and governance.

"Only recently, Peterside unveiled two new books, Leading in the Storm and Beneath the Surface, that have drawn national and international accolades, with many describing them as leaders' companions. Harvard and Kellogg Business School professors have endorsed Leading in a Storm as a must-read for any leader seeking to navigate challenges in both corporate and public life.

"At the event, he will discuss insights from his books and offer guidance on navigating challenges and fostering impact in professional settings.

"Having delivered public lectures in 19 countries over the past decade, he currently holds a two-year fellowship at the Centre for Pan African Studies, Africa University of Science and Technology in Abuja, where he researches on leadership legacy, business-policy interface, and crisis management in corporate settings."

Danjuma stressed that the interactive dialogue offers a great opportunity to network and share ideas on processes that engender successful leadership.
