Dr. William Addai believes leadership in Africa can and will be improved with understanding of African cultural values as formed from the past, present, and the future aspirations, and communicated by our everyday metaphors. The book introduces an ethno-leadership theory, a model, with a how-to-approach for leading accross cultures. It provides the reader with metaphor-eyes to investigate leadership values underlying national, organizational and community behaviors that are crucial to effective leadership in a given context.
