Leadership: Strengths and Weaknesses

A quote from Nelson Mandela-one of the greatest leaders the world has ever seen says, "We learn from both pleasant and unpleasant experiences." In this book titled, Leadership: Strengths and Weaknesses, the author chronicles the life and times of some leaders around the world, to enable readers and the future leaders learn from their strengths and weaknesses; which comprises of their upbringing, careers, rise to the pinnacle of power, political reforms, achievements, the honours for hard work, the mistakes, the romance, the infamous blunders that marred the reign of these leaders, and the consequences. In this part 1, there are various chapters which include the gaffe of Bill Clinton whose assignation with Monika Lewinsky almost ended his presidency in the United States. John Profumo-the British Secretary of the State for War whose brief sexual relationship with Christine Keeler brought down the government of Harold Macmillan, Canaan Sodindo Banana???-the Methodist Minister and first president of Zimbabwe who was involved in sexual misconduct, and was found guilty of eleven charges of sodomy. Ferdinand Marcos whose mistress held press conference in the Philippines and played eroctic recordings of herself and Marcos. Silvio Berlusconi-the Italian business mogul whose tenure as Prime Minister was racked by multiple controversies and scandalous sexual affairs that led to several showgirls testifying of performing eroctic lap dances and sexual acts in his underground space called, the "bunga bunga room." The book finally confirms the notion that unlike the Catholic Pontiff or Pharaohs, these leaders like other mortals are indeed fallible.
