Connective Leadership

Více o knize

Business today is shaped by two global tensions: the unprecedented interdependence brought by the Internet and the enduring autonomy of diverse nations and individuals. This conflicting environment necessitates a unique leadership approach that harmonizes these forces in a political yet ethical manner. The Connective Leadership model embodies this approach, focusing on collaboration rather than authoritarianism. It advocates for creating short-term coalitions instead of long-term alliances and fostering ennobling enterprises that attract commitment. Drawing from extensive research on the leadership styles of over 5,000 leaders and managers worldwide, Lipman-Blumen presents an innovative strategy that transcends competition, promoting "ethical instrumentalism" to leverage the talents of others for strategic goals. This thoroughly researched and accessible work equips readers with the skills and insights to guide organizations, nations, and individuals into the emerging era, ensuring stellar results.
