About this listen
In this episode, the focus is on why Western leadership styles often fail in Africa and the urgent need for a cultural revolution in leadership approaches. The script discusses how Western models, which emphasize individualism, efficiency, and hierarchy, clash with African values of interconnectedness, collaboration, and community. It argues for the adoption of African philosophies such as Ubuntu, Nigeria’s Orua, and Asa-Ile Yoruba, advocating for a leadership style that prioritizes collective well-being, inclusive decision-making, cultural sensitivity, and long-term vision. The ultimate goal is to build organizations that are resilient, adaptable, and reflective of African cultural strengths.
