Description
Accelerate: A New Framework for Competing and Winning in a World of Constant Turbulence and Disruption. In today's fast-paced business environment, traditional organizational hierarchies often struggle to keep up with the pace of change. Global leadership expert John Kotter explains how these systems evolved to meet daily demands, but reveals that they are not built for an era where change has become the norm. Kotter advocates a new system - a dual operating system that combines the existing hierarchy with a more agile, network-like structure. This allows companies to capitalize on rapid-fire strategic challenges while still meeting their numbers. The book illustrates five core principles underlying this new system, eight key drivers, and how leaders must create urgency in others through role modeling. By focusing and aligning people's energy around the big opportunity, companies can achieve real value and stay ahead of the competition.
