How has she coped with the changes the industry has witnessed in the last few years,we asked her.
“We took it in our strides.Change in itself leads to many positive aspects – that leads to retaining a competitive edge and also remaining relevant in your business area. Change encourages innovation, develops skills, develops staff and leads to better business opportunities, and improves staff morale. The first thing we did was to put people first, especially the clients we serve and be flexible as the event topography changes and morphs into something better…
We worked with a change management mindset. …
We empowered our employees through Communication to be open and embrace it as a positive and not a negative aspect of our lives …
We also activated leadership and teamwork to take interest in not just working but knowing more about the industry …
We made Change compelling and exciting for our internal customers which are the backend processes team.
We pay attention to high and low points in momentum. …
And we do not ignore resistance.
We are proactive and most of all attentive to the evolution of the needs of our clients”

She is good at what she does.And she has been around for years, getting better with the passing of each year.She is the CEO of Dunamis Events. “Dunamis Events is a proudly Nigerian event planning, decor, styling and training school for new entrants into the event industry,”she told City people a few days ago.

What has been her staying power in business?”We put the simple extras in normal ordinary things and makes us EXTRAORDINARY and we keep learning to remain resource-FULL and relevant at every level of living. Broadening our horizons and capacity to accommodate our ever growing clientele.”
How did she take the upsurge in the number of event planners in the industry?
“I foresaw this eventuality,due to the fact that the event and creative industry has come to a wider acceptance within the populace, so there’s bound to be this boom. But specialization, continuous improvement and self development will always single out those that are in it for the long haul.”
