Beschreibungen
The book asserts that the most realistic way for South Africa to successfully free itself
from the legacies of apartheid is to meet two fundamental conditions: under-privileged
communities must meaningfully embrace learning and workplaces must be turned
into places of optimal value-creation. It also argues that a critical ingredient needed to
accomplish this is a new spirit of leadership championed by communities.
The author cautions that South Africa should follow a courageous path of making what
works to work, instead of allowing itself to be overwhelmed by the negative power of what
is wrong. He also points out that while corruption and incompetence are real and need
decisive action, unbridled self-interest and hubris in various forms are also very serious
threats which, although more difficult to remedy, require both competent leadership and
effective strategies to bring under control.
The book calls for a courageous new age of knowledge consciousness where ignorance
is replaced by enlightenment, facilitated by leaders who do not just inspire momentary
excitement in people, but who can practically educate people to embrace learning and
practice real patriotism on a sustainable basis. It advocates a three-phase human capital
development strategy based on the principles of consciousness, responsibility and
competence, which can assist people to achieve significance in their lives.
