Dr Omotola Dayo-Adedapo from HRTalenthub.ng told a Lagos conference that Nigerian workplaces need to fix toxic leadership and burnout problems while helping staff feel connected to company missions. Professor Tayo Arulogun from Miva Open University said the country pumps out over 500,000 grads per year, but companies still cannot find decent hires, and he blamed everyone for hunting talent instead of building it internally. Dr Lare Ayoola from Tranter IT Infrastructure Services said bosses need to actually care about their teams because nobody performs well when they feel ignored.
Arulogun mentioned that skills expire in under five years at this point, so learning has to happen constantly instead of once per year at some training event. Ayoola warned that AI adoption is becoming urgent, and any organization sleeping on it will fall behind competitors who are already training their workforce.
