Strategic Agility: The Dynamics of Un...
Corporate performance measure and evaluate how an entity achieves its objectives, delivers value to its stakeholders, and ultimately, succeeds in its mission. As such, performance serves as the yardstick for assessing the efficiency, effectiveness; and overall health of a given entity. On the other hand, strategic agility is the ability to quickly sense and respond to changes, adapt strategies, and seize opportunities in the changing environment. Agility serves as the capacity for an entity to redirect resources to create value; and it is a dynamic capability that confers competitive advantage and improves performance.
The book contends that in an era characterized by rapid technological advancements and evolving market dynamics, the imperative for organizations to cultivate strategic agility has never been more pronounced. It further lays bare the significant gap in understanding how strategic agility through its various enablers- namely organizational culture, adaptive leadership, technological innovations, and strategic partnerships can effectively be harnessed to enhance performance of organizations, particularly within the public sector.
In respect to unclaimed financial assets management in Kenya, the book highlights that the country’s designated regime managing agency, thus the Unclaimed Financial Assets Authority, ought to embrace strategic agility enablers with greater emphasis placed on organizational culture and steady investment in technological innovations (for instance digitalization), for it to realize enhanced corporate performance. By so doing, this has the greater chance of mitigating the commonplace performance crisis among similar organizations, despite high stakeholder expectations.
This book shares about the intricacies of managing the unclaimed financial assets regime in Africa, highlighting the Kenya’s Unclaimed Financial Assets management as a case study. It underscores the principles of positioning a robust unclaimed financial assets regime in Africa and its implications for such institutional management on the national economies. When such calls to action are well responded to, then the chance of averting performance delivery challenges in such or similar institutions, within and beyond our time, space and geographies is plausible. Resultantly, institutions thrive, and economies prosper, thereby securing sustainable development.

Close Call in Mogadishu By Mark Agutu
Wednesday, May 4, 2005 had all the hallmarks of a wonderful day. The sun was up by 6am, peeking cheerfully over the Indian Ocean in the horizon, its rays kicking up beautiful sparkles in the watery
expanse.
This was meant to be a memorable day. The day new Prime Minister Ali Gedi would, in person, address the Somali people in a rally at the
Mogadishu National Stadium.
He had arrived in the battle-scarred city a few days earlier. The purpose of this trip was clear. He was to assess suitability of Mogadishu as the possible seat of the Somalia Transitional Federal Government (TFG) led by President Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed when it relocates home from Nairobi.
Gedi had spent the days following his arrival in energy-sapping whirlwind tours, meeting and negotiating with notorious warlords, determined to win heir backing for the new government.
When the rally finally got going under a relentless midday sun it quickly turned into a festival, a colourful jamboree. The stadium heaved and pulsated with excitement, song and dance
as the jubilant Somalis celebrated what they hoped was the arrival of a new dawn in their country, the dawn of peace and stability.
Then, as Gedi was addressing the multitude, an explosion ripped through the stadium, bringing the event to a shuddering stop. When the dust finally settled, many lay dead, dismembered by
the explosion, as scores of others writhed on the ground, fatally wounded. Gedi emerged unscathed and was whisked off to safety.

Demystifying Youth and Relationships ...
Demystifying Youth & Relationships is a finely crafted masterpiece addressing challenges faced by the young generation in the contemporary society we are living in. The author, Dominic Musomba is an accomplished Youth Mentor and Conference Speaker. He blends real life situations with a Biblical touch to debark issues of healthy relationships, toxic relationships, behavior change as a result of peer pressure, sexual sins including LGBTQIA, handling rejection and recommends ways to overcome relationship challenges among the young people. The book is conceived with the idea of tackling the recent wave of unprecedented bizarre killings of young people in institutions of higher learning resulting from love gone sour and gullibility from love predators wooing our young girls into AIRBnB's and other secluded establishments only to hear of ransom demands and brutal murders. It is not in the interest of the author to allay any blame to the youth for messing up relationally, but to encourage them that it's possible to triumph over relationship challenges. The book is a useful resource tool for young people, parents, teachers, youth leaders, clergy and other stakeholders who bear the load of directing the young generation as they transition into adulthood.
