The End of Leadership as We Know It: What It Takes to Lead in Today's Volatile and Complex World by Steve Garcia

Maximize your leadership impact with the latest insights and research from the field of adaptive leadership

In The End of Leadership as We Know It, a team of veteran executive and leadership strategists delivers an expert analysis of the ten most common errors leaders make when attempting to address disruption and concrete strategies for avoiding them.

The authors explain how to rethink the essence of leadership during times of flux and show you how to deal with unpredictable situations. You'll also find:

  • Ways to identify the devastating blind spots caused by current approaches to leadership
