Desmond Tutu once said, "There comes a point where we need to stop just pulling people out of the river and find out why they are falling in." The authors of this innovative collection take these words to heart. Embracing a transformative leadership approach, they show how contemporary African leaders are meeting a broad range of challenges as they seek positive change in societies dealing with postcolonial ills and aspirations.
