Strategy: Wisdom of a Leader

As a leader, it is your job to take people from A to B, where B is a better place. Therefore you need to know where B is and how to get there. This is strategy. This is wisdom.

We need to master the art and science of strategy to make it better for those around us in Africa. If not, we should not shift the blame but carry the consequences.
