It is an interesting book that is mainly concerned about the author’s practice and experience regarding leadership, and as such is more biographical and self-reflective than I expected. However, examples are given of good leadership practice, notably JF Kennedy, and others mentioned briefly, it would have been good to ‘case-study’ these individuals to see how they accomplished their programmes, thus becoming more instructive. It is not an easy book to get through, and at times I struggled. However, it does offer some insights, but it is not as instructive as I would have wished. Mr Adongo,has nevertheless, accomplished much and he clearly wants to make an impact on his society and bring about welcomed change, ie, where leaders are better aware that they serve and minister.

Honestly, this wasn't my type of read. I read the other one (value of a teacher) and it was okay.
This one is very similar and I think because of that, i found myself getting bored quickly.
Don't get me wrong, it has some very good insights and ideas. However, I had a hard time getting through it because to me, the style of writing was similar to the first book.

More of a AutoBiography

Although the title promises examples and advice on how to be a Servant Leader, the book really reads more like an autobiography, teen years through adult. That said, it’s an interesting read. Illustrating contributions the author has made, how much he loves his country. The biblical references are especially helpful to the narrative.

Mr. Adongo is an interesting person who seems to love his country and has done a lot of good work, but this book seems like a collection of things he's done. It's quite wordy and doesn't actually give lessons on how to be a better servant leader. Maybe it should be under autobiography instead.

Interesting but....

I did find parts of this book interesting but unfortunately I found myself skipping over portions either because I didn't understand it or I didn't find it interesting. I'm sure there are other readers out there who this book would be perfect for.
