Rather it is the productivity of individuals. But how do organisations achieve more productivity, more innovation, more growth and more competitive advantage? These are good questions aren’t they?
Quest answers these important questions by placing organisations and leaders who have achieved remarkable things under the microscope. The book decodes what these leaders do and the remarkable journeys that they have taken to move their organisations and their worlds to higher levels.
The author tells their amazing and inspiring stories through a unique management model framed by three powerful leadership qualities. This framework provides leaders at any level, across any organisation with powerful and practical techniques to inspire people, improve results and have a positive impact in the world they influence and beyond.
Written by Dean van Leeuwen, TEDx speaker, Chief Exploration Officer and co-founder of international strategic and futurist consultancy TomorrowToday. Dean creatively weaves inspiring real-life stories with the latest leadership thinking. He shares his extensive global experience gained from working in over thirty countries with many of the world’s leading organisations and insights gained from lecturing at the London Business School and the European Centre for Executive Development located on the INSEAD campus.
This is a must read for leaders who want to make a meaningful difference.
