Abstract
The study seeks to examine the relationship between intellectual stimulation on the organizational survival of telecom firms in Rivers State. This study investigates this relationship in the telecommunication firms and for this purpose, data were collected from the 40 managers from 4 key telecommunication firms in Rivers State. Out of 40 questionnaires, 36 were retrieved and were valid for analysis. Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and regression analysis were used for the investigation of this relationship. This study found that intellectual stimulation may be used as a tool for the adaptability and innovativeness of telecommunication firms. The study recommends that the management of telecommunication firms should encourage subordinates to re-examine personally established beliefs, assumptions, and values; including those of the leader, which may be outdated or inappropriate for solving current problems.
