Abstract
The Nigerian oil and gas sector plays a critical role in the country’s economy, yet it faces numerous challenges, including inefficiencies aggravated by pervasive micromanagement and the underutilization of local talent. This paper explores how strategic intelligence can mitigate the negative impacts of micromanagement and enhance overall operational efficiency. Drawing on Strategic Management Theory and Intelligence Theory, the study introduces frameworks such as the Visionary Collaborative Leadership (VCL) Framework, the Strategic Intelligence Management Matrix (SIMM), Strategic Intelligence Visionary Leadership Integration (SVLI) Framework, and Leadership Intelligence Management Matrix (LIMM) to foster innovation, improve decision-making, and empower teams. Additionally, the paper advocates for a paradigm shift towards visionary servant leadership and transformative leadership, which optimizes resource allocation, reduces bottlenecks, and creates an environment that supports autonomy and collaboration. Ultimately, this conceptual study offers recommendations for Kevin’s Pedestal Matrix, an integration of four major frameworks that will aid in transforming leadership practices, enhancing organizational efficiency, and driving sustainable growth in Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.
