The essence of this article is to explore the importance and dominance of public
administrations approaches in the innovation of strategic leadership styles in the
teachings and in the viable re-think of the governance of the state. The discussion
will further address the attributes, indicators and domains of what constitutes
scholarship in the discipline of Public Administration. The article will also provide
some overviews for future ramifications in the field of Public Administration in
enhancing leadership skills in continental Africa. This article further suggests that
a critical re-thinking of public administration as a discipline must take the form of
