The Answer to Global Overload
Contending with the 24/7 news cycle and an endless barrage of
choices and information has stymied leadership and decision-making
strategies among those at the top. But we all know, this is not a
just a problem for the elite. The broad-based reaction to this
chaotic, unmanageable assault has been to retrench, and to focus on
immediate, controllable decisions. In the process, we lose sight of
the horizon. More dangerous still, is the shift we've seen from
"value" creation to "wealth" creation, where information technology
1.0 has enabled a transaction-based society in which the "deal" is
more important than the value it drives or the relationships it is
based on. On our current path, the odds of a better future are
slim.
What we need is a new value proposition.
"Beating the Global Odds "is the answer to the dangers of too
much of a good thing. There's no going back, but there is the
opportunity to set things right. In this book, Paul A. Laudicina,
Managing Partner and Chairman of the Board of global consulting
firm A.T. Kearney, provides a fast-paced and engaging tour of how
we got to this point and what we can do about it.
Drawing on examples from everything from world history and
current media to anecdotes from his vast network of CEOs and the
world's most innovative thinkers, Laudicina helps bring our world
of seemingly fuzzy and disconnected pixels into sharp focus.
The result is a compelling case for change and call to
action--not only for global leaders but also for everyone who
struggles with the question of how we can inspire and seize a
better future... how we can beat the global odds.
