Recommendation
To address today’s “wicked” problems, you and your company need a strategy that emulates the open, loose networks that govern daily life. Edward Morrison, Scott Hutcheson and Elizabeth Nilsen of the Purdue Agile Strategy Lab and their fellow Strategic Doing experts Janyce Fadden and Nancy Franklin offer 10 “agile leadership” skills to optimize your network strategy. The magic happens when members of your network share mutual trust and the courage to change, and combine their skills, knowledge and assets in new ways. The authors persuasively present their tactics as the right approach to complex, ambiguous and unpredictable global problems.
