Critical Thinking for Strategic Leadership - Raymond Gilpin

Critical thinking is one of the most crucial but least understood requirements of strategic leadership. Dr. Raymond Gilpin, Academic Dean at the Africa Center for Strategic Studies, explains the steps of critical thinking, how it applies to strategic leadership especially of the security sector, and why it is needed to solve Africa's complex security threats—and draws lessons on the role of critical thinking for strategic leadership from the case of a British football club manager.
