Episode notes
In this episode, we sit down with Andrew Keili, a former vice-presidential candidate in Sierra Leone and current head of its main power provider who has also been highly successful in his country’s private sector. He shares how people in Sierra Leone rise to leadership positions, the kinds of leaders Sierra Leoneans are drawn to, the role of money, culture, relationships and secret societies, and the lessons he’s learned from his own journey in leadership. From politics to personal values, this is a powerful conversation on influence, authority, credibility, and what truly marks out a leader in West Africa today.
