Developing Global Leaders cover

This book is a timely guide on what constitutes effective leadership in Africa. It explores how today’s leaders in Africa perceive their role, the challenges they experience, and how they operate effectively as leaders. In the era of globalization, there is an increasing need to offer guidance on how leaders can adjust their leadership style to suit situational contexts. Drawing on case study and survey data, this book illustrates to scholars and leaders worldwide the vision of leadership that is emerging in Africa. It will contribute to the development of a new community of global leaders, integrating cutting-edge knowledge on leadership development in Africa.

“This book examines leadership through a new lens, demonstrating a high level of scientific analysis through an interdisciplinary approach addressing both theory and practice. Scholars, graduate students, and nongovernmental organizations, as well as policy makers in government will find the book very rewarding.” (Felix Kiruthu, Governance, Vol. 34, 2021)
