Description: This new work shows that a key factor for great leadership is the ability to recognize, explore and profit from ambiguous situations. Drawing upon his own research and including compelling international cases, the author reveals how to lead others through times of uncertainty so as to create opportunity, innovation and competitive advantage.
Synopsis: The ability to deal with ambiguity is a defining attribute for all leaders; it is what separates the great leaders from the average. This innovative new work shows that a key factor for great leadership is the ability to recognize, explore and profit from ambiguous and near chaotic situations, whilst less able peers take all the steps necessary to simply reduce any ambiguity. Drawing upon the author's own research, and including compelling international case studies and stories, this engaging book shows how to lead others through situations of high ambiguity and uncertainty in a manner that creates opportunity, innovation and competitive advantage.
