Another paper also reveals persistent challenges Nigeria’s Higher Education, including the absence of formalized succession frameworks, limited leadership development opportunities, resource constraints, and inadequate administrative commitment. Emerging practices emphasize embedding leadership development into academic career pathways, fostering diversity and inclusion in leadership pipelines, and utilizing data-driven technologies for talent management and informed decision-making.
