About this title

Synopsis

We are living in an era of unprecedented disruption—one that demands a fundamental rethinking of leadership. The rapid rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics is redefining what it means to be human, while the established global order is fragmenting into competing spheres of influence. In this landscape of collapsing norms and emerging systems—shaped by both human and artificial intelligence—the complexity of the present points to an even more uncertain future. To navigate these challenges of technology, conflict, and inequality, leaders need a holistic model that prioritizes not only organizational success but also the well-being of humanity and the planet.

This book explores the qualities and new competencies that leaders must develop to guide creative and lasting change in today’s world. Traditional leadership models focus on doing—crafting visions, communicating, directing, and achieving outcomes. But those frameworks were built for more stable times. The modern world requires a new kind of leader—one defined not just by doing, but by being. This approach emphasizes the character, presence, and purpose of the leader: who they are, how they show up, and why people choose to follow them. Ultimately, it is about leading with authenticity, inspiring trust, and shaping a vision that advances both human and planetary flourishing.
