About this book

Africa's diversity is its greatest resource and challenge. In this book, leaders from business, government, academia and the voluntary sector discuss the implications of this diversity for leadership. Throughout, contributors relate organisational issues to the social, political and cultural contexts and focus on the role of effective leadership.

Reviews

'Here is a very carefully and closely wrought, scholarly, dense and well-written volume that unpacks difference and diversity in all its hues and consequences, with great lucidity, erudition, insight, and success. The editors have done a marvellous job in assembling diverse and interesting papers.' Keith Morrison, Equal Opportunities International
