QUESTION ONE.

Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for twenty-six years by the government of South Africa based on his political views. South Africa governed itself under the policy of apartheid in South Africa into two communities based on the race. Black South Africans who were terribly impoverished. The white South Africans were wealthy, well-educated, healthy and happy.

In the early 1990s, across the globe, the world was yielding to the popular demand that the society must be fair, forced the release of Mandela from the prison and later elected as the president of South Africa.

President Nelson Mandela through his leadership, inherited a nation bitterly divided across racial lines. On one side you had the blacks, very many who demanded revenge against the minority but wealthy white. On the other hand, you had the whites who feared the new government would be corrupt, petty, and interested only in the bringing down the whites.

Did Madiba choose on any side? Which side would you choose? President Nelson Mandela did not favor the black or the white side but otherwise decided to fight the unified South Africa. Mandela decided to show the black colleagues that he was not intimidated by the challenge but rather inspired them to overcome challenges. He showed not to get into power and play over who the leader is but persuaded the uncooperative team members to take responsibility. Through doing this, they thought that was their idea. Therefore they worked together.

Mandela’s leadership quality enabled him to use charm and friendliness than confrontation and acting bossy, and it proved useful. He treated ‘adversaries’ with utmost respect just as he treated the black South Africans and therefore he gained trust and loyalty of the white South Africans. In different scenarios where interests became competent, he became open minded and preserved the participation of everyone involved.

In conclusion, the leadership quality of Mandela demonstrated that once you are given the role of a leader, respect the position and don’t go too far ahead of your base supporters who put their faith in you.
