What followed was two years of world travel, significant personal transformation, and rediscovery of our true essence.

Publisher's Summary
In The Versatile Leader, Msuega Tese offers twelve metaphors for effective leadership spanning a broad spectrum of strategic and tactical situations.
As a starting point, the physician's diagnosis helps uncover the strategic status. The architect makes a realistic plan for the new organization as builders erect structures that transition startups to the growth stage. Engineers solve existential problems and contribute to continuous improvement. Finally, entrepreneurs obtain excellent results by taking ownership, being optimistic, and taking appropriate risks.
On a tactical level, journalists glean information essential for daily operations. Coaches understand the importance of training and delegation. Parents are concerned with the long-term survival of the family line as Judges create a culture of truth and fairness. Pilots know how to navigate turbulent situations. Soldiers are disciplined, courageous, and loyal. Finally, diplomats are good at dealing with sensitive situations.
Each of the twelve metaphors is helpful to leaders at different moments. The metaphor-based leadership builds off the concept of situational leadership. It encourages leaders to learn and adapt with integrity continuously. In addition, this approach brings synergy to a team, regardless of size or type.
