Have you wondered what it takes to lead a business through the toughest of times and come out stronger? How does a leader turn a crisis into an opportunity for growth?

On this episode of Insights Edge, we speak with Dupe Olusola, Managing Director/CEO of Transcorp Hilton Plc, who faced one of the biggest challenges in the hospitality industry: navigating the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. With occupancy rates dropping from 70% to just 5%, Dupe had to rethink everything—absolutely everything!

She shares how bold decisions and innovative strategies not only kept the business afloat but also led to an extraordinary 308% revenue growth post-COVID—propelling Transcorp from N10.16 billion in 2020 to over N41 billion in 2023, with a profit of N9.48 billion. Dupe's leadership extends beyond survival—it's about reinvention and growth, even in the face of uncertainty.

From her experience, you will learn how to embrace change, turning disruption into an opportunity. This conversation offers more than a success story—it’s a blueprint for resilient, forward-thinking leadership.
