MTNN Senior Managers HIDP 2025








It was a privilege to anchor the three-month High Impact Leadership Academy (HIDP) program for MTN Nigeria’s Managers and Senior Managers. The programme was delivered as The High Impact Leadership Academy (THILA) giving a comprehensive learning experience that combined theory, practical application, and real-world case studies. We explored 16 case studies, applied 12 management models, and distilled key learnings into 112 acronyms that summarized performance takeaways from the different disciplines. The program equipped these MTNN leaders with the skills and knowledge needed to drive leadership impact, drawing insights from five key disciplines: Strategy, Communication, Problem-Solving, Leadership, and Coaching.
The 4 critical learning areas were:
- People:
Through the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), participants gained a deeper understanding of their strengths and weaknesses, and learned a critical framework for optimizing their interaction with both their selves and their teams to deliver their best versions, consistently and sustainably. - Process:
Participants acquired modern day practical tools and techniques that will help drive consistent efficiency and effectiveness across their respective teams. - Performance:
Participants were treated to a wide array of case studies to augment their appreciation of numerous performance models that create a habit for success across first class teams. The application of the models will drive a muscle memory for execution across their teams, delivering sustainable wins going forward. - Personal:
Through first class models and benchmarking tools on self-awareness and assessments, the participants developed a high impact leadership mindset that promotes the amazing Self-Development that comes from aligning Self Direction with Self-Management.
The program culminated in two brilliant capstone projects that addressed current MTN Nigeria opportunities. Feedback was resoundingly positive, with participants demonstrating significant growth and development as leaders.
