Liberian peace activist Leymah Gbowee made the list --- The Quinnipiac Chronicle
Three Africans have been ranked among the top “World’s 50 Greatest Leaders” in Fortune magazine’s fifth annual list of individuals who are transforming the world and inspiring others to do the same.
This year’s list focused on individuals who have exhibited tremendous skills towards the effectiveness of their respective organisations.
Specifically, the 2018 list focused on what Fortune describes as “unbundling”, stating that “For centuries, greater size made companies, nations, and other enterprises more efficient and effective. Increasingly, it doesn’t.
“This year’s list puts an emphasis on leaders who are navigating this challenge deftly.”
Here are the Africans that made the cut:
