Speaking on the topic, “Leadership Position: Breaking Through The Glass Ceiling” at the 2nd SSANU National Women Conference, held at Michael Imoudu National Institute for Labour Studies (MINILS) Ilorin, Kwara State recently, the Guest Lecturer, Mrs. M.O Folorunsho said it was high time for female Senior Non-Teaching Staff to brace up for leadership roles and responsibilities in the University.
She pointed out that their place in the scheme of things in the University was no longer at the corridor of power but at the centre stage of administration of the nation’s Ivory Towers.
Mrs. Folorunsho pointed out that for the female senior staff to take their place of pride in the University, they must be disciplined, courageous, visionary and result-oriented.
