  Purposeful Leadership for Africa...

  Leaders of the African liberation movements proclaimed ambitious objectives and promised swift dismantling of colonial policies and practices. It was believed that poverty and underdevelopment were consequences of the exploitative policies of the colonial masters, who had no interest in improving living conditions for local communities. Independence and freedom were anticipated to eradicate poverty, ignorance and disease, and the new leadership would accelerate economic development and prosperity.
  However, after more than 50 years of independence, most African countries are still poor and underdeveloped and this poses a few questions:
  Have African leaders abandoned their ambitions?
  Are African challenges more complex than in other regions?
  Has the political leadership failed to rise to the challenge?
  In his relentless pursuit of African excellence and development, Professor Lumkile Wiseman Nkuhlu offers profound insights and solutions to the challenges Africa has faced and continues to encounter. He wrestles with the vexing question of how a continent with such a rich history and heritage, as well as potential, remains an underperforming region of the world and offers insights into potential pathways and strategies for breaking free from the vicious cycle of underdevelopment.
  Africa can become the world's production powerhouse in the second half of this century, provided that intentional and purposeful leadership emerges. Purposeful Leadership for Africa in the 21st Century delves into the leadership strategies, qualities and policies needed for an African renewal, aiming to reposition the continent as a strategic and competitive global player.

  We are witnessing a worldwide resurgence of reactionary ideologies and movements, combined with an escalating assault on democratic institutions and structures. Nevertheless, most studies of these phenomena remain anchored in a methodological nationalism, while comparative research is almost entirely limited to the Global North. Yet, authoritarian transformations in the South — and the struggles against them — have not only been just as dramatic as those in the North but also preceded them, and consequently have been studied by Southern scholars for many years. 
  
  This volume brings together the work of more than 15 scholar-activists from across the Global South, combining in-depth studies of regional processes of authoritarian transformation with a global perspective on authoritarian capitalism. 
  
  With a foreword by Verónica Gago.

  In Delhi's Ridge Forest lies Malcha Mahal, which was home to a family cloaked in mystery: Begum Wilayat Mahal and her children, Princess Sakina and Prince Ali Raza-self-proclaimed descendants of the House of Awadh. From their dramatic arrival at New Delhi Railway Station in 1975, where they squatted for a decade, to their last years in a decaying monument-their story weaves together colonial injustices, Partition's upheaval and modern India's struggles with identity. 
  Were they true heirs to a lost kingdom, delusional outcasts, or cunning impostors? Drawing on cross-border reportage, archives and intimate interviews, Aletta Andre and Abhimanyu Kumar explore the family's audacious claims as they bring to life an ambitious woman and her sensitive children. They also present a new account of the tragedy of Awadh and its slow ruin, as well as that of India-Pakistan relations from Independence to the present. Gripping and compelling, The House of Awadh is an unputdownable blend of history and memory.

  "Reality Check is a book I wish I had 15 years ago. It’s packed with examples and insights on how to get your questions right in order to improve and change. " — Ola Helland, Writer of the comedy/science TV show Brille. 
  Amidst the constant whirlwind of change, clarity feels elusive as we desperately grasp for answers when it’s the transformative power of questions that we truly need. Author Carlo Mahfouz, a fervent believer in the art of inquiry, invites us on a voyage to uncover the profound clarity within these catalytic moments—epiphanies he terms "Reality Checks." 
  Synthesizing decades of change leadership experience with research-backed frameworks, Carlo Mahfouz reverse-engineered these moments and laid bare the hidden preparations, allowing anyone to formulate the right strategic questions at the right time — bringing a philosophical perspective down to earth through Carlo's own immigrant journey, his unlikely opera training, and more to humanize each rich concept. 
  Mahfouz taps unconventional wisdom from interviews with global innovators from across the world, such as:CEO of the world’s first mind-controlled bionic arm;VP of strategy at a Fortune 500 science and technology innovator; Senior Executive at one of the world’s leading EdTech companies in Healthcare. 
  … and many more with experience ranging from working at NASA to Nonduality coaching and selfless leadership. 
  You’ll examine overlooked elements like context, time, and self-awareness through a potent new lens designed to upgrade your sense-making skills in chaotic times. Mahfouz aims to help you experience your own "Reality Check" to unlock the art of precision and presence in your leadership, innovation, and life.
