Overview

Over the next decade, today's connected world will be explosively more connected. Anything that can be distributed will be distributed: workforces, organizations, supply webs, and more. The tired practices of centralized organizations will become brittle in that future. Rigid hierarchies will give way to liquid shape-shifting forms that will require new leadership literacies. It's too late to catch up, but it's a great time to leapfrog. Noted futurist Bob Johansen goes beyond skills and competencies to propose five new leadership literacies-combinations of disciplines, practices, and worldviews-that will be needed to thrive in a world of increasing volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. Designed for current rising stars, talent scouts searching for leaders, and executive coaches seeking a fresh view of leadership, The New Leadership Literacies will help all of us update our leadership literacies in preparation for the future.
