About the book: 
In 2023, Reuel Khoza unsealed a letter to the future, which he had written in 1999 when he was chair of Eskom, at the time recognised as the best power utility in the world. It was an optimistic letter, expressing hopes that have since been dashed by corruption and maladministration – by a failure of ethical leadership.
 
Khoza has written about leadership before – considering the importance of the intelligence, emotional and social quotients. Now he broadens his focus to explore the role of spirituality – a ‘faith quotient’ – in transformational leadership.
 
Powerful chapters deal with Ubuntu and Christianity, the social responsibilities of business, the nature of generosity in an unequal world, and the search for common values to bridge conflicts. This is a vital and timely book for a country that has lost its moral compass.
