Vision#1: LEADERSHIP IS EVERYTHING (CONTINUED)

Our minds determine whether or how we understand what leadership means or does not mean. Our minds determine what kind of worldview we bring to the task and responsibility of leadership. And our minds

determine whether we have, or can acquire, the character and competence if leadership.

Great leadership must be transformative. I always approach the subject of leadership with the end in mind: what will be said about my service after I have completed a specific leadership task?

Indeed, to envision more radically, what will be said at my funeral? (One should that that event will hold somewhere North if my 100th birthday!). I have applied this understanding to every leadership role in which I have had the privilege to serve. From national reconciliation

and nation-building work by the United Nations in New York, Cambodia, Croatia and Rwanda to institutional and management reform in @UN; from building global partnerships and raising billions of dollars for social investments in developing countries by the Global Fund in Geneva

to structuring and facilitating investments in emerging markets; from leadership roles in monetary policy making and banking sector reform in Nigeria in the wake of the global financial crisis to serving as a professor in one of America’s premier universities,my vision has always

been to leave the situation, institution, or assignment I was tasked to handle much transformed from where I met it..
