The Continent of Africa Has New Leadership
The capacity to communicate a vision involves motivation and inspiration. When leaders create an environment that inspires , motivates, and encourages passion among their people, they fulfill a fundamental function of society – namely the role of work as a source of creative human fulfilment.
The most important quality of a good leader is character. It is this character that sets the tone in an organization or in the government. Clearly, the values, principles and standards which make up good governance and foster social responsibility start at the top. In fact, the values which provide the foundations for good governance – namely fairness, accountability, responsibility and trust – are intrinsic qualities of good leaders.
