This book seeks to demonstrate that we can learn from both 'good'
and 'bad' leaders. Part One looks at President Trump's behaviour
from inauguration to impeachment. The ancient Greek concepts of
Kairos and Chronos are used to indicate that Trump was almost a
natural fit for the US of 2017. Part Two considers the consequences
of his behaviour on the US, the world at large, and for leadership
overall. There is a temptation to consider only 'good' leaders when
asking what we can learn from others. This book explores the issue
of what can be learned from any person in a leadership role, no
matter what the value judgement we make of them. Part One explores
Trump's behaviour up to the moment of impeachment and the
longer-term residual impacts this will have once his term as
President is over. It shows that our value judgements tend to be
based on perception and a priori assumptions. Part Two explores
what we can learn from the Trump event no matter what our
leadership role. Disruption is endemic in today's world. Today, it
often seems that we are born, live, and die, in three quite
different worlds. Yet, at its core, things have changed very
little. Oligarchy has been a reality since time immemorial. Unless
we are first 'unfrozen' from the status quo, change tends to be
more cosmetic than actual. Donald Trump's presidency has the
potential to be the thawing agent that could enable 'real' change
through which new forms of both democracy and capitalism might
emerge across the world.
Can we design organizations in a way that creates a space where
employees, the organization, and the larger community all thrive?
And if so, where can we go for inspiration to help us achieve this
goal? In a time of volatile and complex uncertainty, it is time to
learn the lessons that nature has compiled from 3.8 billion years
of research and development. Nature is an interdependent, dynamic
and living system - just like today's organizations and
communities. Kathleen Allen uses nature as a model, mentor, and
muse to rethink how leadership is practiced today. Leading from the
Roots takes nature as a source of inspiration to help organizations
see a new way of leading and designing workplace structure,
applying the generous framework found in mature ecologies to human
organizations. Kathleen Allen helps shift assumptions, practices,
structures, and processes of organizations to become more resilient
and nourishing for all, and, along the way, design the way out of
workplace dysfunction and drama. "Leading from the Roots provides a
powerful new way of thinking about organizations as living systems
and delivers practical leadership frameworks for individuals to
learn how to unleash the energy and create innovative, effective
teams. -Anne Boneparte, CEO Appthority This book is a must read for
organizational leaders who are not only committed to their mission,
but equally to creating a workplace that attracts and retains the
brightest and the best professionals fully enabled to meet that
mission. -Caryl Stern, President & CEO UNICEF USA
