SynopsisThe ability to pivot quickly, profoundly, and effectively might be the most important core competency individuals and organizations must attain in order to prosper in the new economy. And it isn t enough to be able to change "when" they have to; leaders must change "before" they have to, in proactive ways that allow their organizations to leverage incoming global shockwaves to accelerate performance.Cragun and Sweetman use contemporary examples to drive important points home. Key strategies are couched in metaphors to create visual maps that will help the reader implement their new learnings at the moment of need. The stories and case studies are compelling, eclectic, and global, and take the reader beyond just the world of business. "Reinvention" includes chapter insights written by six global experts from six different geographical business regions around the globe."
