Her breakthrough work with hundreds of successful professionals and executives, as well as aspiring young entrepreneurs, identifies the leadership paradigm of the future: the ability to 'think outside the building', to overcome establishment paralysis and produce significant innovation for a better world. Kanter provides extraordinary accounts of the successes and near-stumbles of purpose-driven men and women from diverse backgrounds, united in their conviction that positive change is possible. A former Trader Joe's executive, for example, navigated across business, government and community sectors to deal with poor nutrition in inner cities while reducing food waste. A concerned European banker used the power of persuasion - not position - to find novel financing for improving the health of the oceans. A Washington couple enticed global partners to join an Uber-like platform to match skilled refugees with talent-hungry companies. A visionary journalist-turned-entrepreneur closed social divides by giving 50 million social media users access to free local education and culture. When traditional approaches are inadequate or resisted, advanced leadership skills are essential. In this audiobook, Kanter shows how people everywhere can unleash their creativity and entrepreneurial adroitness to mobilise partners across challenging cultural, social and political situations and innovate for a brighter future. ©2020 Rosabeth Moss Kanter (P)2020 Hachette Audio
