“A Philanthropist’s View, Tips, Techniques, and Principles to Achieve True Leadership

Contrary to the belief that true leaders are born; leaders are manufactured through a rigorous and long process. Good leadership skill is not an overnight process. It is a series of self-development, training, and a desire to do better. A lot of people are very influential but that does not mean they are good leaders. Though it is an advantage, having influence isn’t enough. It has to be refined for it to evolve into true leadership.

Joachim Oforchukwu offers this kind of help and insight in his book, “Perspectives Leadership: A Synthesis of Types and Theories.” This book is rich in tips, techniques, principles, and practical knowledge for self-improvement that will not only help you in the corporate aspect but will also teach you how to train successors. This will also show you ways on how to use leadership to positively influence a person’s life.

Dr. Oforchukwu stressed out 6 important points inside his book:

· Leadership Theories
· Ethical Leadership
· Servant Leadership
· Charismatic Leadership
· Ideal Leadership
· Future Leaders

Each point is streamlined extensively to maximize learning potential in the hopes of creating more leaders for the future and create a paradigm shift so leaders can have another perspective.

These principles are proven methods and are effectively put to practice by Dr. Oforchukwu himself. He founded Ezinne Philomena Scholarship Foundation, INC. that aims to raise funds for underprivileged people so they can also be sent to school.”
