Good governance and responsible leadership are the key to Africa's and the world's future.
Anybody studying governance and the state of the world can see that we have tremendous progress over the last decade, the world is becoming more peaceful and more prosperous as people migrate to cities, democracies spread and global trade increases.
However, we still have a long way to go and business can just operate effectively in a fair and free society, in a system that gives life chances and doesn't waste a single talent and creative mind.
The role of responsible leadership is cruicial in inspiring and empowering followers and protecting the rights of vulnerable groups.
The people of Africa demand better government, more responsible leadership and participation. Just a week after shake hands with Burkino Faso's president Blaise Compaore he was ousted from power having neglected his people's strive for change and reform.
Companies and governments can no longer and should never neglect the needs of their constituency. The world has become more flat, transparent and integrated than ever before - good corporate citizenship and governance has developed from being a compliance issue and legal requirement to an essential part of how organizations are run and structured.
Our company New York Business Consultants is teaching leaders to be responsible, to implement so called triple bottom lines and corporate social responsibility policies because we believe that only responsible leadership that takes the social and ecological impact of one's decision sinto account leads to sustainable economic performance.
