Patrice Emery Lumumba was viewed as a
revolutionary leader for his ability to empower and motivate others using his
strong regard for consensus and the democratic process. Lumumba's leadership
success can be attributed to his use of consensus. Consensus is considered the
superior decision making process to build commitment and motivation between group
members to achieve group objectives.
During the colonial period he was
discovered as a powerful man who as potentialities of an African leader and
also as a revolutionary leader and helped organize the fight against racism in
Congo Belgium similar to the style of the apartheid time in South Africa as
well.
However, Lumumba was a strong man
with vision; he observed leadership at a young age while observing his guardian
supervising tribal decision-making gatherings. After everyone had spoken, his guardian guided
the group to reach a consensus. Later, Lumumba used this experience to meld his
leadership style. Patrice Emery Lumumba was the first Black Prime minister of
Congo Belgium and currently DRC and he was one of the most instrumental figures
that helped end racism in Congo Belgium and currently DRC by claiming freedom
in the country.
