Uncovering Indigenous Models of Leadership focuses on Native and
Indigenous leadership as an expression of a lived experience--as
seen, felt, and heard--from the perspectives provided by Native
Pacific Islanders, Polynesians, and, more specifically, Samoans
from the Talavou clan. Central to this study is the question: What
themes and elements influence Samoan leadership and how might these
leaders provide others, elsewhere, with a different model of
leadership, to reduce the inequitable effects of capitalism's
insatiable hunger for more power and material gain, so that all
people on planet Earth might thrive? This study asserts that
alternative models of leadership must be uncovered and that Native
and Indigenous People, specifically leaders, hold the keys to
moving our species beyond survival so that we can all thrive.
Liberating, inclusive, and anchored in self-determinism, it
demonstrates that Native and Indigenous People know who they are,
why they exist, and that they will continue to thrive, despite the
ongoing impositions of colonialization, capitalization, and
globalization on their ways of being and knowing. Ultimately, it
uncovers an Indigenous model of leadership based on the notion of
alofa, or love. As a companion to the study, the author has created
an extended play album of original music titled, "Heart of the
Matter," which can be found online. Leiataua Robert Jon Peterson,
