CWG Plc convened nearly 200 senior business leaders and public sector executives at its closed-door Texcellence Leadership Prelude in Lagos, calling for bold, risk-informed leadership to navigate Africa’s rapidly evolving technology landscape.
The event, themed “Betting on the Future: Making Bold Decisions in a Tech-Driven World,” featured a keynote by decision science expert and former poker professional Caspar Berry, who likened executive decision-making to high-stakes gaming, where certainty is elusive, and courage is key.
“In business, as in poker, the goal isn’t to eliminate uncertainty, but to operate within it,” Berry said. “Impactful decisions rarely come with perfect information.”
