Lassy LL Chiwayo Turns a Multidimensional Public Career into a Story of Knowledge and Authorship.

Lassy LL Chiwayo is bringing decades of experience across South African public life into authorship, connecting political history, government, municipal leadership and international service with a wider audience.

A career such as this builds into it many experiences and lessons learnt from not only one sector, but also several organisations. Lassy LL Chiwayo's experiences from political activism, provincial government and municipal administration to diplomatic service and now as a publisher is such a career.

Chiwayo's political career is of course based on his involvement as a young anti apartheid activist in South Africa. Apart from being documented as being imprisoned on Robben Island during the late 1980's, he was released from prison in 1990. His life's experience is based on the life of a generation whose political life was shaped by South Africa's transition from apartheid to democracy.

He then built his career as a professional in the public service in the Province of Mpumalanga. He held and executive and legislature positions at different times in his career, thus gaining diverse administrative experience.

His career then moved into municipal government. He was the Executive Mayor of Mbombela Local Municipality from 2008 to 2011. His tenure as Mayor coincided with preparations for the 2010 FIFA World Cup during which Mbombela, amongst other South African locations was involved in hosting the competition. A 2009 address by a South African government minister identified Chiwayo as the then newly installed Mayor of Mbombela, when outlining preparations for the World Cup competition.

He then moved into the diplomatic service as South Africa's consul-general in Shanghai, adding an international dimension to a diverse professional background. A two of the jobs he held, currently identify him as a former Mbombela mayor and a former consul-general to China.

The transition to publishers then links the careers of political and municipal service, administrative responsibilities, diplomatic duties and now publishing. This is illustrated through the use of publishing to showcase the insights of information accumulated as the author's careers unfolded.2 This is a representation of publishing as way of informing the audience of work and experience.

Other professionals, researchers, entrepreneurs and academics could use this as an example of what publishing offers through showcasing research, thesis, books, ideas, business and other professional experience.
