Summary |
Today's leaders and managers have to operate in an environment characterized by complexity. What does coping with this ever- and faster-increasing degree of complexity require of them? It means that if they are to deal successfully with all the challenges they need to reconsider their leadership approaches. Leading in Hyper-Complexity is dedicated to all experienced managers and leaders who lead across space and time while simultaneously operating in 'conventional' structures. It takes a closer look at how to lead, and how to navigate in today's complex and sometimes unpredictable business environment. Anyone experienced in tackling today's complexity will know that you cannot expect to find easy-to-follow recipes for success. But we are not powerless, as is shown by the ten in-depth interviews with top managers from different cultures featured in this book. --Provided by publisher. |
