Leadership for a New World

Leadership for a New World, compiled by Professor Pierre Casse is a compendium of different perspectives by a group of nine renowned thought leaders. The aim of the book is to provide readers with the opportunity to reflect on the current evolution of leadership as we rise to meet the challenges, we face in our world today.The world in which we find ourselves in the second decade of the new millennium appears beset by a widening range of intractable challenges which the authors explore, drawing on their research and first-hand experiences of leadership-in-action in an extraordinarily complex world.The intention is to encourage readers to reflect on what leadership is becoming as we continue to face such enormous existential challenges which, by their very nature, necessitate a continual questioning of established assumptions and understanding of what leadership is in an ever-changing global environment.Through a series of thought-provoking chapters and related self-assessment exercises, the reader is encouraged to challenge their own experiences and frames of reference and in so doing, clarify the kind of leadership that is essential for our continued survival for a new world in the making.
