Synopsis

Dynamical Leadership builds on metaphors from complexity science and chaos theory to change the way we think about the leadership landscape in times of unbelievable change. Dynamical change is unpredictable, entangled on many dimensions, and is full of energy, power, motion, motivational force, vigor, and is characterized by continuous change, activity, or progress. This kind of change takes a different leader who knows how to see and influence patterns, utilize differences for maximum capacity building, and engage people in a new way. This book offers models, tools and examples that guide leaders to a new frontier.
