  The Leadership Constant -...

  Humans have been conditioned to fear and avoid changes, but no advancement happens without it. Change is the driving factor behind all progress even though we are inherently uncomfortable with it and strive to maintain the status quo. We prefer repetitive, routine tasks with minimal energy which is why so much of our lives happen on autopilot.Comfort zones provide a sense of well-being, but change happens and we are thrust into transitions, sometimes against our will. It takes time to process the emotions and adapt to a new environment with a new set of rules and as difficult as that is for individuals, the level of complexity is multiplied in organizations. This provides specific challenges to leadership who must adapt the conscious act of leading audaciously as it is the difference between survival and failure. A leader must motivate people out of their natural preference for inertia and into a new level of excitement about making changes that they are programmed to resist. History provides excellent examples of audacious leadership strategies.Dr. Judy Morley outlines five audacious strategies, illustrated by examples from the Civil War, the Battle of Gettysburg, and contemporary businesses. Each strategy is considered audacious because it didn’t necessarily follow the prescribed norms and called for bold, daring action. The success of these strategies in the microcosm of the Battle of Gettysburg is reinforced by a contemporary example in the macrocosm of today’s business world. If the use of these strategies can change the course of humanity, they can certainly beef up your leadership.

  Based on a research study of more than a dozen leading companies, two world-renowned strategists detail the seven leadership imperatives for transforming companies for success in the digital era. 
   
   
   
  For companies to succeed in this digital age they must reimagine their businesses before they reimagine being digital, and courageously shed the past to rethink their place in the world and how they compete and collaborate with others to create value. 
   
   
   
  In their new book, Paul Leinwand and Mahadeva Matt Mani, both members of the PwC US partnership and the Strategy& global team, help leaders navigate these profound and historical shifts and provide a roadmap for reshaping their companies. Building on major new body of research, along with case studies of companies on the vanguard of this major shift, the authors identify the seven imperatives that leaders must follow as the digital age continues to evolve: reimagine your company's place in the world; build privileged insights into your customers; create value through ecosystems; break up the traditional organization; reposition your leadership team; reinvent the social contract with your people; and disrupt you own leadership approach. Together these seven imperatives comprise a playbook for architecting and executing the transformations that are required to succeed in the digital age.
