Objective
This workshop is designed to encourage employees to adopt a mindset of growth, integrity, and excellence, enabling them to unlock personal liberation, enhance workplace productivity, and contribute meaningfully to national development.
Introduction
Our mindset and perspectives define how we approach challenges, opportunities, and responsibilities. Employees can either function as free individuals committed to excellence or as individuals bound by resentment and mediocrity. A change in perspective can unlock higher performance, drive workplace excellence, and build a strong foundation for national development.
Consider this: if a nation is to prosper, the workplace must be a hub of innovation, productivity, and excellence. It begins with individual transformation.

1. Do More Than You Are Paid
- Growth Mindset: Employees often feel cheated and do only the minimum required. This mindset limits personal growth. Instead, adopt the philosophy of contributing more. Giving your best effort, regardless of the immediate reward, positions you for future success.
- The Long View: Like an athlete training off-season, consistently exceeding expectations prepares you for greater opportunities. Remember, “for the advancing man, all things advance.”
- Reflection:
- Are you currently doing more or less than what you are paid for?
Activity:
- Write down three ways you can exceed expectations in your current role. Share with a colleague for accountability.
2. Integrity in the Workplace
- Stealing Hurts Everyone: Taking from the company’s assets, funds, or resources harms the organisation and indirectly impacts your colleagues, as it depletes finances for operations and salaries.
- Broader Impact: Embezzlement in organisations mirrors the economic issues in Nigeria, where widespread corruption affects national progress. A workplace that prioritises integrity builds a foundation for a thriving economy.
- Reflection:
- Do you believe the organisation can survive if everyone chooses to “help themselves”?
Activity:
- Discuss in small groups how workplace integrity contributes to national development.
3. Productivity Over Loafing
- Contribution Drives Salaries: Employees must understand that salaries come from organisational output. Low productivity reduces revenues and jeopardises job security.
- Proactive Mindset: Evaluate your daily contributions. Ask yourself, “Am I a cost or an asset to this organisation?”
Exercise:
- Perform a self-audit: List your daily tasks and rate their impact on organisational goals. Identify areas to improve.
4. Adopt a Servant Leadership Mindset
- Humility Drives Excellence: Viewing every part of your job as honourable increases adaptability and thoroughness. People with servant mindsets are willing to roll up their sleeves, regardless of their role.
- Eliminate Job Hierarchies: There are no “small” jobs, only small-minded attitudes. Recognising every task’s importance fosters a culture of respect and collaboration.
Affirmation:
- All areas of my job are honourable and dignifying, offering avenues for advancement.
Activity:
- Managers and employees swap roles for a day to understand the value of every job function within the team.
5. See Yourself as a Valuable Player
- Self-Worth Translates to Performance: Employees who see themselves as critical contributors tend to perform better. When you recognise your value, you ignite a desire to deliver excellence.
- Nation-Building Through Excellence: Employees with a sense of worth not only uplift their organisations but also contribute to the economy’s growth by fostering innovation and productivity.
Affirmation:
- I am a Very Important Person in my workplace. My contributions matter.
Activity:
- Create a “Value Proposition Statement” that highlights how your role impacts your organisation and share it during team meetings.
Conclusion
A shift in perspective transforms not just your performance but your potential for long-term growth. By committing to integrity, exceeding expectations, and valuing your role, you build a legacy of excellence that extends beyond the workplace. This mindset contributes to nation-building by fostering a culture of accountability, productivity, and progress.
Call to Action:
Adopt the mantra: I am valuable. I exceed expectations. I work with integrity. Challenge yourself to embody these principles daily and inspire those around you. Nation-building begins with workplace transformation—let it start with you.
