ANLCA crisis span from lacks comprehensive code of professional conduct

 



A Freight Forwarder, Eugene Nweke, has identified the cause of leadership tussle in ANLCA to be lack of compresive "code of professional conduct.


  He said this in a Post Easter Message Of Peace To The Leadership Of The Oldest Freight Forwarding Association In Nigeria, titled: ANLCA LEADERSHIP QUAGMIRE - A TOTAL DERAILMENT OF PROFESSIONAL FORTUNES.


Nweke stated: "Without prejudice, or  any deliberate intent  to insult the integrity cum personality of any of this crop of chief executives, I discovered that, among the ANLCA status books, apart from some sections of the constitution, non of its books has comprehensive "code of professional conduct " as an extant book of executive guide.


"To this end, it is obvious to posit that, " ANLCA Corporate Stake, pursuance to its corporate mission and vision is not adequately defined, as such whatever that constitutes the ANLCA corporate interests is perhaps as  crafted or intended by a particular leader or presiding chief executives. 


"Here again, I also  observed that, professional association leadership logics is often in contention with professional leadership ideology. This usually plays out often, as obvious evidence in practical terms abounds-  In  most instances, chief executives does see themselves as trade unions leaders today and tomorrow parades themselves as professional advocacy /lobby group. This is a major confusion in corporate outlook and mindset amongst the Associations, not limited to ANLCA.


"Furthermore, I observed that Association interests in relation to the basic principles or the essence of Association which is; seeing and approaching leadership from the concept that, Association is always a battle for professional membership increase, enhance relevance,  improvement of professional wellness,  professional effectiveness via strong representations and efficiency via visionary and selfless leadership delivery, which is anchored on principles of "WE" ( Team work ) and not "I' ( Individualistic). Understanding that, chief executives must lead very much as general in order to win.


"This Association basic leadership principles appears to me as being skipped or not deeply grasped by most of the chief executives, judging from their antics and unremorseful posture.


"Truly,  I do understand as much that, it is more fun for purposeful chief executives to win a hard fight than an easy one, but not in all situation, especially not doing so in the face of dying profession and impoverished practitioners.


"Four years ago, when the ANLCA top echelon leadership tussle reared its ugly head, looking at the array of successful chief executives of viable companies, who by professional inclination and association was brought together, to use their wealth of experiences to chart a new progressive course and add impetus to the freight forwarding profession and practitioners, I rested my confidence, while I relied on the words of this two visionary leaders and writers:


"Lord Byron noted that: "Adversity is the first path to truth", while Francis Beaumont equally noted that: "Calamity is a man's true touchstone ".


"With this in mind, it implies that any aspiring executive will certainly face one crisis or obstacles in the course of showing leadership or administering the organization. 


"Generally, what is expected of such executives under such circumstances is not only thoughts of how to cope with the adversity but how he or they were able to turn the Adversity to corporate advantage.


"I have been astonished and worried that this crisis had persisted till now, I resorted to do a private further review and probe why these crop of experienced and successful chief executives must tow the path of endless destruction of corporate association image and professional integrity, with its attendant consequence on the practicing members, and yet going about with levity and perhaps unperturbed," he said.
