TRANSFORMATIVE AND ENGAGING LEADERSHIP Lessons from Indigenous African Women Maggie Madimbo

Palgrave Studies in African Leadership

Series Editors Baba G. Jallow LaSalle University Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Faith Ngunjiri Concordia College Moorhead, Minnesota, USA

Aim of the Series Palgrave Studies in African Leadership fills a gap in the production of knowledge and scholarly publishing on Africa and provides a much needed outlet for the works of scholars interested in African leadership studies around the world.Where many studies of leadership in Africa focus solely on one country or region, this series looks to address leadership in each of the different regions and countries of the continent. This comes at a time when business and academic discourse have begun to focus on the emerging markets across Africa. The wide-ranging scholarly perspectives offered in this series allow for greater understanding of the foundation of African leadership and its implications for the future.Topics and contributors will come from various backgrounds to fully explore African leadership and the implications for business, including scholars from business and management, history, political science, gender studies, sociology, religious st studies, and African studies. The series will analyze a variety of topics including African political leadership, women’s leadership, religious leadership, servant leadership, specific regions, specific countries, specific gender categories, specific business entities in Africa, and more.
