Book excerpt: The authors, who represent Empowerdex (Economic Empowerment Rating Agency), have interviewed many of the top black leaders, executives and managers, for rare insight into their lives and achievements. Where did they get their first jobs? What personal philosophies motivate them? Trailblazers is focused on the recent history of black business in South Africa and the secrets of the pioneers who made it, while also giving indications for further changes stemming from research and politics. The personal vision of those currently in power will shape the future of business, and the authors trust that their research and debate will inspire more young business people, whose talents are so badly needed to increase South Africa's prosperity. Empowerdex has identified the need for a new breed of business leadership in South Africa, one more involved with day-to-day decision-making. The authors discuss the context Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) has created for powerful black business people, and give voice to the pioneers who can offer advice and vision to inspire younger aspiring executives. Their research shows the relationship between politics, business and the South African economy, as well as the facts and figures behind these powerful people and their companies. Trailblazers offers insight and knowledge of the current business environment and its potential.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning to Lead for Transformation takes an international and inclusive approach, exploring learning and educational leadership from different cultural and theoretical perspectives, from Habermas' theory of cognitive interests to Freire's approach to education and Ngara's decolonized epistemology and Ubuntu-based developmental approach. Enriching his presentation with Japanese and Western examples, Ngara uses the African tradition of storytelling as well as engaging exercises to explore: - The developmental approach to teaching and learning - The link between the proposed pedagogy and leadership development - The importance of relevant curriculum content - The importance of approaches based on indigenous knowledge systems or cultural traditions. Each topic is introduced with a “tuning in exercise”, and the reader is guided to reflect on their own experiences and understanding throughout the book with discussion points and activities.

Download or read book Understanding Leadership written by Robert M. McManus and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laozi, Marx, the Buddha, Ibsen, Machiavelli – these are just a few of the world’s great thinkers who have weighed in on the subject of leadership over the centuries. Yet the contemporary student of leadership often overlooks many of these names in favor of more recent theorists hailing from the social sciences. Understanding Leadership: An Arts and Humanities Perspective takes a different angle, employing the works of the great philosophers, authors, and artists found in world civilization and presenting an arts and humanities perspective on the study of leadership. The authors build their conceptual framework using their Five Components of Leadership Model, which recognizes the leader, the followers, the goal, the context, and the cultural values and norms that make up the leadership process. Supporting the text are a wealth of case studies that reflect on works such as Ayn Rand’s novella Anthem, Eugène Delacroix’s painting Liberty Leading the People, Charlie Chaplin’s film Modern Times, Athol Fugard’s play "Master Harold" . . . and the boys, Laozi’s poetic work Dao De Jing, and Antonín Dvořák’s New World Symphony. The authors also introduce studies from various world cultures to emphasize the role that cultural values and norms play in leadership. This illuminating framework promotes the multidimensional thinking that is necessary for understanding and problem-solving in a complex world. Understanding Leadership: An Arts and Humanities Perspective will be a valuable resource for both undergraduate and postgraduate leadership students, while leadership professionals will also appreciate the book’s unique liberal arts and cultural approach.

This book was released on 2021-12-31 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students with disabilities who are not able to perform to the best of their abilities often find themselves learning in inaccessible environments and subjected to increased stress levels due to the haphazard provisioning of education characterized by physical, communicative, and unsuitable teaching and learning approaches. Very often this is a result of various shortcomings including unfair assessment practices. Misconceptions and a lack of knowledge with regard to the implementation of inclusive education detract from the successful admission of students with disabilities and their retention and active participation. The Handbook of Research on Creating Spaces for African Epistemologies in the Inclusive Education Discourse explores the concept of inclusive education in an African context. It advocates for the monitoring and evaluation of inclusive education and proposes interventions where reasonable accommodation or lack of accessibility is a reason for students with disabilities to not benefit from this system. Covering topics such as barriers to learning, rural schools, and student support, this major reference work is an essential resource for administrators, advocates for students with disabilities, policymakers, researchers, pre-service teachers, educators, academicians, and students.

Download or read book The Spirit of Leadership written by Reuel Khoza and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2024-05-21 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2023, Reuel Khoza unsealed a letter to the future, which he had written in 1999 when he was chair of Eskom, at the time recognised as the best power utility in the world. It was an optimistic letter, expressing hopes that have since been dashed by corruption and maladministration – by a failure of ethical leadership. Khoza has written about leadership before – considering the importance of intelligence, emotional intelligence and social awareness. Now he broadens his focus to explore the role of spirituality – a ‘faith quotient’ – in transformational leadership. The Spirit of Leadership is about faith in humanity and, above all, faith in God. It is about being an African and a Christian, and a strong believer in the virtues of ubuntu, Africa’s philosophy of humanness. It is about ancestral wisdom and modern leadership. It is about progress through ethical behaviour and good governance in business. Finally, it is about innovations of the spirit that are needed to save South Africa – and indeed the world – from a spiral of despair. This is a vital and timely book for a country that needs to rediscover its moral compass.

Download or read book Rethinking Language Use in Digital Africa written by Leketi Makalela and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2021-06-23 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book challenges the view that digital communication in Africa is limited and relatively unsophisticated and questions the assumption that digital communication has a damaging effect on indigenous African languages. The book applies the principles of Digital African Multilingualism (DAM) in which there are no rigid boundaries between languages. The book charts a way forward for African languages where greater attention is paid to what speakers do with the languages rather than what the languages look like, and offers several models for language policy and planning based on horizontal and user-based multilingualism. The chapters demonstrate how digital communication is being used to form and sustain communication in many kinds of online groups, including for political activism and creating poetry, and offer a paradigm of language merging online that provides a practical blueprint for the decolonization of African languages through digital platforms.

Download or read book Attuned Leadership written by Reuel Khoza and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaders are not just born to the role. They are born, then made - and sometimes unmade by their own actions. A leader who is not attuned to his or her followers soon becomes a leader in limbo and invariably then fails. Connectedness, compassion, empathy, integrity, humility, reasonableness and a determination to be effective are the keys to attuned leadership. An attuned leader can step boldly into an uncertain future with the certainty that followers will lend their support. In this richly reflective discussion of leadership and transformation the author provides a guide to what constitutes ethical leadership in local and global contexts, for business, politics and government. In a world where tyrants abound in corporations and in states, Attuned Leadership provides a compass for the direction of ethical leadership. Central to this perspective is that the philosophical traditions of Africa offer an important contribution to the theory and practice of leadership in the world today. African humanism or Ubuntu, evokes both reason and empathy as the basis for ethical leadership. Ubuntu - articulated in the Zulu proverb Umuntu Ngumuntu Ngabantu - means that a person is a person because of other people. The author contends that the reciprocal relationship between the individual and the social collective stimulates caring and progressive thought and action. Nowhere is this more apt than in the relationship between leader and followers.
