To lead effectively in today's brave new world, you have to question EVERYTHING.   For the first time in human history, knowledge is free and almost every boundary to communication has been lifted. This open source world has permanently altered the business landscape. And you can count on the fact that the pace of change will only accelerate. Yet . . . companies still rely on management tools and practices that were, at best, mildly effective in their heyday.   In Open Source Leadership, Rajeev Peshawaria reveals the vision, insight, and practices he has used to help some of today's largest and most influential organizations meet the open source world head on. It all starts with asking the right questions: • What’s the most effective leadership style in a world of 24\/7 connectivity? • How has the very concept of leadership changed in the open source era? • How do you inspire and reward performance in the \"gig economy?\" • How do you measure engagement and effectively address the gaps? • How can you lead innovation--quickly and continuously?   Peshawaria reveals the answers to these questions--and they will surprise you. Based on his company’s groundbreaking research spanning 28 countries, he concludes that traditional industrial age thinking needs a massive upgrade to successfully navigating the brave new world of business. Open Source Leadership rewrites the rules of management, giving you a unique look at the most common misperceptions, illusions, and downright wrong information you’ve been getting about what works and what doesn’t.  It provides a new, counterintuitive model for seizing competitive edge in any industry. Among other issues the book argues convincingly that \"positive autocracy\" must replace democratic leadership; talent and innovation are abundant not scarce; early identification of high-potentials is counter-productive; and setting employees free to do as little as they want will increase productivity.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49572037034257,"sku":"GOR010866358","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49581825786129,"sku":"GOR010208667","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49809444634897,"sku":"CIN1260108368G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51022460518673,"sku":"NIN9781260108361","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52816933290257,"sku":"CIN1260108368VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1260108368.jpg?v=1750711840"},{"product_id":"sustainable-sustainability-book-rajeev-peshawaria-9789815144574","title":"Sustainable Sustainability","description":"Eighteenth-century economist Adam Smith propagated profit maximization as the incentive for businesses to create goods and services that society needs. He argued that free-market competition would ensure consumers get the best quality product at the cheapest price. Two hundered years later, Milton Friedman agreed in his seminal 1970\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003eop-ed that the sole responsibility of business is to maximize profits 'so long as it stays within the rules of the game'. Incentives coupled with some regulations were to henceforth safeguard societal interests. Instead, incentives created bad behaviour. Regulations were routinely bypassed with intelligent loopholes. Despite this--to encourage sustainability today--we are again using incentives and regulations. That's predominantly what the ESG framework focuses on. And what do we see? Rampant greenwashing and box-ticking. To address today's existential challenges, we need innovation of the highest order. Innovation can neither be legislated nor driven by extrinsic incentives alone.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49750841327889,"sku":"NGR9789815144574","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50399941067025,"sku":"CIN981514457XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50895019114769,"sku":"GOR014110641","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51287100195089,"sku":"NIN9789815144574","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/981514457X.jpg?v=1781777924"},{"product_id":"too-many-bosses-too-few-leaders-the-three-essential-principles-you-need-to-become-an-extraordinary-leader-cd-9781452602363","title":"Too Many Bosses, Too Few Leaders","description":"How did Alan Mulally--an outsider to the auto industry--lead such a spectacular turnaround at Ford?
