On Friday 21st & Saturday 22nd
February 2014, top executives and entrepreneurs across Lagos attended a
unique experiential two day leadership and professional development
program at the Wheatbaker hotel in Ikoyi, themed “Ignite the Champion Within.”
This event was created by the Ignite Success and Leadership Development Academy under the leadership of Udo Okonjo, (Chief Igniter and C.E.O of Fine and Country West Africa), along with Guest Igniters Bob Etherington (international Peak Performance Executive Coach and Trainer), Atlanta based Kwavi Agbeyegbe (Vitality and Health Coach), and Tokunbo Osunbayo, (a Robert Kiyosaki, Cash Flow Financial Teacher and Facilitator).

On day one of the Ignite the Champion
Within, having being welcomed and serenaded by a world class
saxophonist, delegates had an opportunity to pose for individual profile
shots by the UK based photographer Dianna Bonner. The
Igniters with more than 100 years of experience between them, were
subsequently sworn in by a lawyer in front of the audience, and made a
pledge to provide the highest level of service to the delegates. The
delegates also made a formal pledge to embark on a journey of discovery
with absolute sincerity, commitment and responsibility.

Some of the topics covered at Ignite the
Champion Within included Success is a Choice, The Champions Pathway,
Success Conditioning, The Secrets of Influence and Persuasion, The Six
Scientific Laws of Influence, Ignite your Finances, Money Personalities,
Reach for the Stars, Ignite Vitality and Health, Ignite Excellence, the
Six Degrees of Separation and the principles of Successful Networking.
The positive feedback from the delegates
was overwhelming. According to the delegates, the event had exceeded
their expectations and changed their mindsets dramatically in a short
time. The combination of interactive engagement, live music, and use of
visual props aided understanding and concentration. Delegates
particularly enjoyed the visual and interactive illustrations, personal
examples and challenging statements from the Igniters.
To consolidate the transformational learning experience that started over a two period for the delegates, the Ignite the Champion Within
went the extra mile to set up a follow up and post event online
accountability system to enable participants review and engage with each
other further. In a month from the event, the delegates will attend a
live breakfast meeting to exchange testimonials of practical results or
lessons learned over the first 30 days post event.
