A Brief History Of Africa
The African continent is the world’s largest reserve of natural resources. Investors, businessmen, and companies are interested in the future of this territory and are seeking to organize themselves. The primary beneficiaries of African wealth are dissatisfied due to a lack of marketing communication, poor management and the self-destruction of banking institutions in place.
Africa is seriously lacking in human resources capable of driving the development of natural resources for the benefit of individual countries and global economies in general. In this regard, Africa lacks the expertise necessary to assess its territory and mineral resources, as well as well as legal experts needed to negotiate contracts with multinationals in the sector.
Agriculture, mining and energy resources have the potential to drive economic growth on the continent and thus accelerate human development.”
Leading beyond tomorrow isn’t just about managing change. It’s about developing people’s capacity to change, and that’s the difference between change management and change leadership. I learned one of the techniques for leading beyond tomorrow from the author of Making Meetings Work.
Reflexive reciprocity sounds complex – Perfect for a consultant – but it is actually quite simple. The principle is the following:
You cannot lead people into a new future without understanding their shared history by honoring their past. Reflection focuses on understanding people’s pasts. By letting them reflect on their history, accomplishments, events, and anecdotes, you allow them to tell you what defines them. By listening and paying attention, you demonstrate interest and value that past. Reciprocity is the implicit promise that if you listen to me, I will be willing to listen to you about how we will move forward together. By building on this shared past, you can now move the organization forward.
