    The role of political leaders in enhancing peace and tranquility: Thinking big
    (International Journal of Managerial Studies and Research (IJMSR), 2015) Massoi, L.W.; Milanzi, Montanous C.; Kyando Newton; Norman A.S. King
    Political leaders play an important role in facilitating peace and tranquillity. Their vitality is appreciated because they have followers- people who believe in what they say and act accordingly. This paper is cemented on the speech of considered one of the gurus of development management in the world when he made his presentation before the political party leaders in the Ruvuma region in Tanzania. While the amplification of the speech is based on Tanzania, we consider that the speech is relevant to the nationals of the world. The paper is a review in nature and has articulated experiential and factualism of the current world in setting the literature review, methodology, discussion and conclusion. The speech called upon leaders to realize that the emergence of political parties does not mean to jeopardize humanity. Political parties are planes, buses, trains, motorcycles, bicycles and footers for the sake of moving in the direction one would want to go, yet those who move are more important than the vessels they use. Development is what one ought to envision in whatever is done. Hence, synergizing thinking is a must for attaining development under the surface of peace and tranquillity. The paper concludes that peace is inevitable without political leaders playing a vital role in harnessing what they believe with others’ beliefs. In addition, political leaders must appreciate that losing and wining an election is the major outcomes of democratic elections.
