THE NEW SCIENCE OF RADICAL INNOVATION The Six Competencies Leaders Need to Win in a Complex World

Narrator Janet Metzger gives this intelligent piece of business writing the liveliness it needs to deliver its science-based message about how teams function best. Her compelling vocal personality and energetic phrasing do much to lighten the subject matter, making the author's insights immensely accessible. Systems expert Sunnie Giles has an impressive grasp of leadership, psychosocial dynamics, and brain functioning--all of which she illustrates with colorful examples and stories. She says that hierarchical leadership styles won't work in today's organizations, which have faster-moving inputs than ever and require nimble communication among workers. She shows how leaders can be more effective by leaning into the chaos, developing more insight into themselves, and creating environments in which people can collaborate safely and be creative in the face of uncertainty.
