Aaron Ng'ambi has spent the past several years learning from various leaders in his country of Zambia. He has met with political leaders, sometimes in their homes, and asked questions and listened. He has wanted to understand what makes great leaders, and what they have in common. Aaron hopes to return to his country in due time and serve in a political capacity as a leader so he can influence others for good. He is inspired to learn as much as he can about leadership in the interim. We agree with Aaron that studying leadership is essential to leading. We owe it to our personal philosophies and those we lead to study how to lead.
We reflect on great leaders like Nelson Mandela who are examples of taking great leadership principles literally. Enjoy this episode and discover more about why we take the time to study leadership within our institute.
