| Summary: | "Your Company's Own Worst Enemy knits a range of inter-related techniques together into a novel leadership mindset for our times, a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. The book does this by walking readers through the ten fundamental errors leaders commonly make in attempting to address disruption. As we've learned, managers feel motivated most to fix what they're doing wrong rather than incorporate new approaches for their own sake. Drawing on our clients? experience as well as the latest research about adaptive leadership and complexity, we survey the damage caused by these lingering approaches and offer powerful strategies to help leaders achieve the impact they truly seek. Leading in times of flux isn't about championing shiny new tactics. It's about taking a comprehensive approach and rethinking the essence of leadership itself, especially in dealing with unpredictable situations. With our book in hand, leaders will gain a new awareness of their current approaches and the devastating blind spots they cause, while feeling equipped and energized to remedy them. They'll finally stop trying to control employees and instead work to unleash them, the only way to capture value in a complex environment. Written in clear prose and packed with compelling stories of disruption gone wrong (and right), Your Company's Own Worst Enemy delivers tough-love feedback and gets to the heart of what it takes to lead in today's fast-paced, complex world. Backed by an energetic and creative marketing campaign, our book will be read and discussed in boardrooms, corporate retreats, webinars, and business school classrooms everywhere."-- |
