TAONGA GRACE AS A LEADER

My concept of success is based on continuous self-improvement—striving to be better today than yesterday. It's about impactful actions that contribute positively to society. While not there yet, my journey in innovation consulting marks progress. Success isn't just about achievements but also about dedication, perseverance, and readiness to embrace failure as I navigate new chapters in my life.

Leadership is not being a manager.

Great Leaders have high emotional intelligence.

The future of leadership is diverse.

When I think of a leader, I think of Zambia’s founding president Dr Kenneth Kaunda.
