Samenvatting

This book explores how spirituality and resiliency defines
the character of African women and inspires them to serve the communities and
organizations around them. Through portraits of twelve Malawian women national
leaders, it celebrates the lives of indigenous women and describes how their
unique backgrounds and experiences have contributed to their leadership
development. It provides an understanding of the strategies these women employ
to move beyond historical barriers to exercise leadership.

The author introduces a new leadership model called
transformative engaging leadership, which demonstrates how African women
leaders use their inner strength to thrive and succeed in the midst of
challenges. It contributes to African female leadership studies and will be
helpful to leaders and organizations that have a passion for advancing female
leaders in the developing world.
