Review Quotes:
"True leadership is about inspiring and influencing others to follow you. It is this process that builds one's reputation to be a mentor for someone. In his books Africa, It's Time! and 31 Essential Principles of Leadership, Charles exhibits his passion for leadership and the need to transform leadership of those who lead. A leader is the voice of the voiceless. As a leader, you are expected to stand in the gap, lobby and advocate for those whose freedoms, rights, and privileges are trampled upon. I therefore recommend that these books be used as resources that will promote effective and competent leadership in the home, church, schools, universities and business in the whole world."

"The success of true leadership is determined by the legacy of passing on the leadership mantle. True leadership is about inspiring and influencing others to follow you. It is this process that builds one's reputation to be a mentor for someone.

A leader is the voice of the voiceless. As a leader, you are expected to stand in the gap, lobby and advocate for those whose freedoms, rights, and privileges are trampled upon. Effective leadership
trains other leaders, as 2 Timothy 2:2 says, "And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others." You will be remembered as a true leader by the number of faithful people that carry on your leadership dynamics and attributes to signify the continuity of your leadership, even when you are no more. I therefore recommend that these books be used as resources that will promote effective and competent leadership in the home, church, schools, universities and business in the whole world."

"Africa needs leaders who can be heads of states, not heads of states who should be leaders. Discourses such as the ones which are being released by my dear brother, Charles Balenga, are beginning to sprinkle resilient seeds despite the ground upon which they would fall, as long as it is an African ground: some uncommon and non-compromising leadership plants would pop up and grow to the salvation of Africa."
