“I have consulted books on the subject of having to change jobs. What stand ‘Winning Your Right Job’ out are its outcome-focused instructions on how to do things; the way it teaches how not to do things in the course of seeking to move up and move on in highly competitive environments; as well as the way it seeks to develop the supervisory, managerial and leadership know-how in the individual”


Ibukun Oderinu – Ex Human Resources Controller, Oasis Group, Nigeria (Now Managing Director/Chief Executive, Mario Consulting Limited, Nigeria


“Rather than giving us fish, Mathew has given us an enduring training on how to fish in the oceanic waters of the labour market. Whosoever consults this book is bound to win not just jobs, but those high-profile ones that are rare to come by”

About the Author

Mathew A. Oladimeji’s major interest is in the area of leadership development through the inculcation in people of the virtues of principled self-appraisal, developmental self-renewal, continual self-improvement, and value-driven sense of self-discipline. He was trained at the prestigious Lagos Business School and has been on several management and leadership development courses, seminars, and workshops facilitated by various world-class institutions among which is the notably strict Business School of Netherlands. An experienced generalist human resources management expert, Mathew has been on either side of recruitment and selection table with organisations in both the private and the public sectors - sometimes as candidate and at other times as superintending member of recruitment and selection panels. He, therefore, knows where the opportunities are and what it takes to reap all that the labour market has to offer in terms of how easy it could be to move up and move on. Gloomy as the situation may portend regarding the imbalance between the ever-increasing number of those wishing to change jobs or be newly employed and the available job spaces, Mathew believes that whoever takes the ideas expressed in this book with all the seriousness they deserve will always emerge victorious with effortless ease. He, therefore, requests that the book be regarded as an indispensable compendium of career advancement not only by those aspiring to supervisory, managerial, and leadership positions, but also by those who are already supervising, managing, and leading, and by those who wish to move up and move on in their respective professions. Married to Pastor (Mrs) Mercy Oluwakemi Oladimeji and blessed with ‘Covenant Ps’ namely, Peter, Paul, Phillip, Patrick, and Precious, Mathew who hails from Ado-Ekiti in Nigeria, is a member, both of the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria and Nigerian Institute of Management (Chartered). He currently resides in the United Kingdom.
