Analysis of Business Problems
Brief info
Dr Yetunde Anibaba is a faculty member at Lagos Business School whose work focuses on how leaders make sound decisions and build resilient organisations in environments characterised by uncertainty, disruption, and rapid technological change. Her thought leadership sits at the intersection of leadership, strategic foresight, organisational transformation, and inclusive leadership. She examines how leaders can anticipate emerging trends, frame complex problems effectively, and guide institutions through periods of profound change.
For nearly 20 years, Dr Anibaba has worked with senior executives across sectors, including financial services, healthcare, ICT, FMCG, and energy. Her work addresses leadership challenges that increasingly define today’s business environment: navigating uncertainty, leading transformation, strengthening institutional capacity, and responding to technological and societal shifts. By integrating behavioural insights with strategy and leadership practice, she helps organisations move from reactive decision-making toward more foresight-driven leadership.
In her teaching and executive education engagements, Dr Anibaba focuses on developing leaders who can think systemically, make sound judgments under pressure, and lead responsibly in complex contexts. Participants in her programmes learn to approach leadership not only as a matter of authority or expertise, but as the disciplined practice of making thoughtful decisions that shape institutions and societies.
Her work extends beyond the classroom through initiatives that strengthen leadership ecosystems and institutional effectiveness, including efforts that advance gender inclusion and responsible governance in key sectors of the Nigerian economy.
Dr Anibaba is driven by a commitment to developing leaders and institutions capable of shaping Africa’s future. She believes that foresight-driven leadership, sound judgment, and inclusive values are essential for building organisations that contribute to sustainable economic and societal progress.
