About this title

Synopsis

A highly practical and researched-based toolbox for anyone who wants to create a world with more justice, creativity, and courage. Learn the skills for unlocking the benefits of diverse teams.

For ideas to evolve and societies to progress, it's vital to cultivate principled rebels who are committed to challenging and improving conventional wisdom. Change never comes easily. And most would-be rebels lack the skills to overcome hostile audiences who cling desperately to the way things are.
 
Based on cutting-edge research, The Art of Insubordination is the essential guide for anyone seeking to be heard, make change, and rebel against an unhealthy status quo.  Learn how to
 

• Resist the push for conformity
• Produce persuasive messages that influence the majority, when in the minority.
• Build mighty alliances
• Manage the discomfort when trying to rebel
• Amplify ideas from other people that run counter to traditional thinking
• Unlock the benefits of being in a group of diverse people holding divergent views
• Cultivate curiosity, courage, and independent, critical thinking in youth
• Filled with engaging stories about dissenters in the trenches as well as science that will transform your thinking. The Art of Insubordination is for anyone who seeks more justice, courage, and creativity in the world.
