He gave us the courage not to try to change those around us, but to change ourselves.

In “What Nelson Mandela Taught Me. Timeless lessons on Leadership and Life” Zelda describes her journey after the death of Mr Mandela making sense of the impact he has had on her life. She shares Mr Mandela’s teachings about humility, respect, honesty and the biases and blind spots we all have. It is only by truly listening – trying to understand, not listening only to respond – that we can overcome the distrust among us. La Grange also explores the toxicity of social media and how Nelson Mandela’s lessons are equally relevant in the digital age. Filled with wisdom and hope, this book invites each of us to honour Mr Mandela’s legacy by living with integrity.
