Nevertheless, one of the valuable messages reads, 'Don't get lost in familiar territory.' The Badlands metaphor provides an innovation imperative, which transcends a pure technological scope and truly integrates the social and organizational experimentation we need to embrace. Navigating the Badlands provides a reconceptualization of how we view the world and strategies to do something about it. A great book." "Navigating the Badlands offers a thought-provoking exploration into the upheaval occurring in business and society. Those leaders wanting to thrive through this transformation will welcome this opportunity to challenge their thinking and broaden their perspective in new fresh ways. Leaders wanting to positively impact our new global society will embrace the Badlands message and insights on the criticality of ethical leadership." "This book will change the way you think about the future. Mary O'Hara- Devereaux's insights are both sobering and empowering: a must-read for citizens of the twenty-first century." "Navigating the Badlands provides a clear economic and social context for companies to understand and respond to the impact of global transformation on the consumer." |
