A Remarkable Journey Through Storytelling.
Robin’s gift of storytelling and his powerful recollection of the past make this part autobiography, part inspirational book, a remarkable read. “Build Legacy Not Inheritance” invites readers to sit beside him by a warm fire, as if he’s sharing tales with his grandchildren. He weaves a compelling narrative that spans from his mischievous childhood of stealing mangoes to the serendipitous events that led him to become a young student in the United States.
The book takes us on a journey through vibrant locales, including the hills of Kampala, Washington D.C., Accra, and climbing the slopes of Kilimanjaro. Robin fills this narrative with heartwarming anecdotes, capturing his early childhood, the joy of meeting the love of his life, Rose, and the parenting challenges he faced while navigating the diverse generational perspectives represented by their four children.
Having worked with Robin for many years, this book offered me profound insights into his impressive educational and professional journey. I learned about the resilience and composure he maintains in crisis situations, traits shaped by a strong traditional and religious foundation alongside his extensive international experience.
Ultimately, Robin weaves a marvelous tapestry of lessons drawn from his personal and professional life. His reflections serve as a compelling reminder that true success lies at the intersection of opportunity and preparation. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in understanding how diverse experiences contribute to personal growth and fulfillment.
