Abstract EN
The radically change in the economy of advanced states emanating from the growth in the state-owned companies has thrown the challenge to the shrinking position of public enterprises in African states.
Most African governments no longer considered these enterprises as the beacon of the economies due to unnecessary low productivity generated by acute inefficiency.
The Nigerian experience in this institutional disequilibrium is predicated majorly on leadership problem rather than inadequate financing and resources.
The organizational dysfunction in the Nigerian public domain originated from poor managerial technique of public bureaucrats.
Over the years, public sector management has suffered serious setback due to consistent dependence on archaic means of handling administrative matters.
In order to enable the bureaucrats at the top echelon to flow with global technology that will revitalize the public sector, particularly public enterprises, it becomes imperative to embark on leadership training.
The central focus in modern day management is significantly the human element and what should be done to stimulate them in an organization to effect productivity.
To effect this productivity change in the public enterprises is the responsibility of human resource management (HRM) unit of affected organization
