VISION A NUST recognised as a premier leader in STEM oriented learning, teaching, research and innovation for the accelerated development of Zimbabwe, the SADC and the AU as a whole.

MOTIVATION Based on my record of innovative leadership at executive, middle and shop‐level management in higher education I submit my application for the opportunity, privilege and challenge of leading NUST to new heights as its third substantive vice‐chancellor. You will note that I made significant contributions in tertiary and higher education both nationally and internationally.

These include:

 Coordinating the nationalisation of the Zimbabwean technician and artisan training programmes, as Head of Department, Electrical Craft, at the Bulawayo Polytechnic,  Actively participating in the Association for a University in Bulawayo (AUB) lobby,  Leading the team designing both the undergraduate and postgraduate Electronic Engineering curricula at NUST first as acting Chairman and subsequently as substantive Chairman,  Championing the inauguration and and coordinating fine‐tuning of the industrial attachment programme up to the time served as Dean of FIT at NUST,  Contributing to the drafting of the Zimbabwe Evangelical Theological University Charter and strong business model, and  Initiating the accredited taught masters’ degree programme in telecommunications at the University of Cape Town as the inaugural Convenor.

My strengths as a leader that fit the “Think in Other Terms” motto are:

 Vision and staying power to initiate and set up strategy, inspiring operational planning for its achievement  Consistency in the pursuit of an institutional mission in constrained environments  Versatility in managing for success with constrained budgets  Motivating staff at all levels and students to reach heights of personal performance targets

NUST from the start has been a leader in finding the best fit among education, the private sector and government in achieving national objectives. It is now poised for visionary leadership that will enable it to raise its international profile to that of a leading world class university in teaching and learning, research and innovation, as well as outreach to the community of stakeholders within and around it. I eagerly look forward to discussing the NUST vision and how we can team up and work towards its attainment under my leadership.
