“…Progressive leadership should distinguish diversity and inclusivity as part of the strategic purpose. Cissna and Schockman (2020) reveal that the key formula lies in ethics and inclusivity in clarifying positive leadership. Consistent with this study is the research conducted by Adams et al (2020), where they describe positive leadership as a model in itself as it incorporates authenticity, respectfulness and inclusivity.…”

PurposeCountries in Africa have undergone an unprecedented transformation that has shaped the continent as they move ahead from the clutches of colonialism. The evolution of leadership and how organisations function optimally has given rise to the review of leadership approaches and practices, revolutionising its position in the global markets. With the recent spate of global suffering from the pandemic, the formal and traditional work structures are becoming transient. At the same time, the economic consequences of the Russo-Ukrainian crisis have catastrophic effects globally.Design/methodology/approachThe research was conducted via a systematic review of scientific sources from various academic websites. Eligibility criteria were defined with the agreement of pertinent themes and concepts.FindingsBy evaluating and analysing characteristics and success indicators from the blend of leadership competencies ascertained from Afrocentric principles in response to African associated problems, Africa can cement its leadership concepts without following the global north principles. These philosophies are resilient enough to contend with a range of VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity) complexities, including the impact of the recent global pandemic of immeasurable proportions and the prospect of war as the Russo-Ukrainian conflict intensifies.Originality/valueWithin the African environment, there is a greater focus on the human element in shared values, holistic well-being, cooperation and experience. The global community band together to deal with these complexities. This is a typical example of global connectedness with positive and negative connotations.

Le présent article étudie les effets d’une intervention en leadership positif et pleine conscience sur les expériences, les traits et les comportements positifs des managers et de leurs salariés. Notre méthodologie de recherche repose sur une quasi-expérimentation avec des prétests et post-tests aléatoires effectués sur un groupe de contrôle spécifique : dans une entreprise pharmaceutique française, un groupe de 36 managers a participé à une intervention en psychologie positive (PPI) de 10 jours axée sur le leadership positif et la pleine conscience. Les données recueillies avant (T1) et après (T2) l’intervention montrent que les expériences et les comportements positifs ont augmenté, tandis que les traits positifs ont été renforcés chez les participants – mais pas parmi les membres du groupe de contrôle. Ces observations ont été recoupées avec les données recueillies au niveau des salariés. Plus précisément, les résultats indiquent qu’après l’intervention (T2), les managers ont ressenti plus d’empathie, de pleine conscience et de consonance tout en ressentant moins de stress. De même, à T2, les salariés ont confirmé que leurs managers ayant pris part à l’intervention étaient plus attentifs et affichaient une plus grande conscience collective. De plus, ces salariés ont perçu que leurs managers sensibilisés à la psychologie positive et à la pleine conscience faisaient preuve de davantage de justice procédurale et de vertus civiques organisationnelles. Les contributions théoriques, empiriques et managériales de cette étude sont également discutées.
