“This is the first of three volumes in a series that traces the leadership thoughts and philosophical
disposition of Professor Arthur G.O. Mutambara over a period of 35 years, as his generation sought to
become the transformation it wished to see in Zimbabwe. The trilogy constitutes a fascinating intellectual
and political journey by the man who would become Deputy Prime Minister of Zimbabwe at the age of 42.
It is a collection of grounded reflections that he expressed over time, as he endeavoured to move, lead and
inspire people, while turning strategic thinking into reality through the speed of execution”.
