POWER-UP8 - Discover the 8...

Craig Debbie

The world of work is changing exponentially. Rapid technological innovation and global forces are compelling businesses to disrupt traditional models and adopt new digital strategies and skills to compete. This requires new future-fit thinking, as well as the habits and capabilities to learn, adapt, experiment and fail fast. Whilst technology may be threatening to replace many repetitive or replicable human activities, there is still a critical need for thinking and skills that will enable innovation, customer engagement, responsiveness, adaptability, cross-boundary teamwork, virtual teams and personal health, success and fulfillment. 

In POWER-UP8, Debbie Craig reveals why the world needs more people who are:

•	Intensely curious (about themselves, others and the world), 
•	Originally creative (experimenting, learning and willing to fail), 
•	Courageously committed (to their vision for self, team or cause), 
•	Consciously choosing (where to focus attention and how to show up), 
•	Critical thinkers (who can resolve dilemmas and make meaning out of noise), 
•	Trust building collaborators (that combine perspectives and strengths into lasting relationships and value), 
•	Change influencers (that navigate the maze of change for positive impact) and,
•	Generous contributors (that build lasting healthy communities).

POWER-UP8 offers readers a guide to rapidly build the most important beliefs and habits required for success in the next decade – using the latest brain and behavioural science of learning and change. These 8 capabilities have been carefully chosen from a unique combination of research and practical experience in developing organisations, leaders and learners over the last 20+ years.
