Kenya’s Tax Czar: Autobiography MG Waweru (SoftBack) by MG Waweru
MG Waweru came to the public limelight in 2003 when he was appointed the Commissioner-General of Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA). With his clarion call, “Kulipa Ushuru ni Kujitegemea, he presided over impressive transformation of KRA, resulting in a surge in tax collection.
He is credited with cultivating a tax-compliant mindset among Kenyans, making even ordinary citizens feel obliged to pay taxes in order to achieve a self-sustaining economy. At the end of his nine-year tenure, MG had pulled the country out of the borrowing spree to a point where 95 per cent of the government expenditure was financed from revenue collection.
Yet, MG’s corporate journey was not just at KRA. He rose through the ranks of the prestigious auditing and consulting firm, Ernst and Young, eventually becoming its managing partner. He also helped found the iconic Trans-Century PLC, which grew from a Chama to a listed company on the Nairobi Securities Exchange. But MG’s journey did not start in ornate corner offices; it is a journe’y defined by challenges of growing up during the heady days of the fight for independence, fraught with deprivation and near desperation. That he was able to surmount these challenges and end up at the helm of KRA makes his story intensely inspiring.
At KRA, MG had an open door policy,and gave people capacity, support and trust to deliver on their mandates.He was very fast at identifying those who embraced his reform and modernisation agenda.He quickly made them agents and catalysts for reform.

The Defining Decade By Meg Jay
KShs2,495.00Read moreBestselling psychologist Dr. Meg Jay uses real stories from real lives to provide smart, compassionate, and constructive advice about the crucial (and difficult) years we cannot afford to miss.
Our “thirty-is-the-new-twenty” culture tells us the twentysomething years don’t matter. Some say they are a second adolescence. Others call them an emerging adulthood. Dr. Meg Jay, a clinical psychologist, argues that twentysomethings have been caught in a swirl of hype and misinformation, much of which has trivialized what is actually the most defining decade of adulthood.
Drawing from almost two decades of work with hundreds of clients and students, The Defining Decade weaves the latest science of the twentysomething years with the behind-closed-doors stories from twentysomethings, themselves. The result is a provocative read that provides the tools necessary to make the most of your twenties, and shows us how work, relationships, personality, social networks, identity, and even the brain can change more during this decade than at any other time in adulthood—if we use the time wisely.
The Defining Decade is a smart, compassionate and constructive book about the years we cannot afford to miss.

The dreams from my father By Barack Obama
KShs1,890.00Add to cartThe dreams from my father By Barack Obama
In this lyrical, unsentimental, and compelling memoir, the son of a black African father and a white American mother searches for a workable meaning to his life as a black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama learns that his father—a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man—has been killed in a car accident.
This sudden death inspires an emotional odyssey—first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother’s family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the African side of his family, confronts the bitter truth of his father’s life, and at last reconciles his divided inheritance.

Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people’s masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose.Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defence.
