We live in a threshold moment in human history where the world we have made is undone, and a new one is yet to be born. During this unsettling interregnum, a special group of visionary people appears. Embracing the freedom of not knowing, they draw on their inner strengths and the wisdom of their community to nurture a climate of disruption and risk-taking and make space for generativity and creativity. Dr Father Anselm Adodo belongs to this category of liminal leaders who know how to invite the emerging future into the present through his insightful scholarship, his integral leadership, and his systems entrepreneurship, where homo sapiens is no longer the central character of humanity’s new story.

I have known this ‘old soul’ and son of the soil for many years. I have followed every single step and achievement of his with pride and contentment. His ideas, thinking, outlook, and passion are beyond his years, and I am inclined to believe he is a reincarnated being with a message of hope for the world, not just for Africa.
