The Versatile Leader
In a world crowded with leadership books of all varieties, The Versatile Leader by Msuega Tese stands out. With an authentic and engaging voice, Tese’s perspective on leadership unfolds in three successive parts, each serving as a building block for the next. Each leadership concept is a treasure supported by practical examples from his rural upbringing, his Christian faith, and his professional work as an engineer and an entrepreneur. As a result, he distills his experience of more than five decades into easily accessible and digestible archetypes.
He uses familiar occupations as metaphors to articulate appropriate leadership responses required by the situation.

Though it was no simple task to decipher the parables in which these elders often spoke, being vigilant has become Tese’s way of life.
