Críticas
This is an amazing piece of work! It deals with the little known irony: that those with the most decision-making power often feel under the most pressure to conform to the systems and norms around them. This explains why our institutions - whether national, regional or international - have been caught off guard. And why we are stuck in reactive rather than proactive - mode. The need for a strategic overhaul in our thinking is widely acknowledged, though few know how to go about it. I think giving a copy of this book to every world leader would be a good place to start. --Miroslav Lajcak, President of the UN General Assembly, Foreign Minister of Slovakia I can say, very genuinely, that this book is hugely important. But it is also difficult because it is human nature to react to crises but not to prepare for and pre-empt them. It is also very different today from what it used to be because of the multiplicity of possible crisis events that can overlay each other. We simply do not have the capacity to deal with more than one crisis at a time. I was very impressed by the work Nik presented when he came to the Bank." --Kristalina Georgieva, CEO, The World Bank This book it timely, scary and important. One hopes it will be widely read - and that it will resonate with those in demanding senior roles in both public and private sectors who are overwhelmed by the fast-changing and complex challenges they confront. Still more importantly, one hopes that it will trigger wide debate and thereby help to reduce the probability of the 'unthinkable' setbacks that threaten our current civilization - threats about which too many people are still in denial. --Lord Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal, Founder of the Centre for the Study of Existential Risk, Cambridge University 'With so much change in business and in the political arena, you can either play safe in responding, or - as this wonderful book encourages the reader - you can "thrive on change." Thinking the Unthinkable urges leaders to engage with ideas that may appear - or may be in the short run - disruptive but will lead to innovative outcomes, products and services. This is a must read for all leaders in all sectors!' -- Professor Sir Cary Cooper CBE, Alliance Manchester Business School, Co-author, The Myths of Management (2017)
Reseña del editor
Executive leadership faces new vulnerabilities. Many leaders privately concede them, but few are willing to talk publicly about them. "Unthinkable" events since 2014 have revealed a new leadership fragility at the highest levels. And the pace of change in 2017 shows that the uncertainties are greater than ever. Is this the "new normal?"Thinking The Unthinkable is an investigation into why leaders have appeared more unable or unwilling than ever to anticipate the biggest issues of our time.In an era of "wicked problems" why are current leadership behaviours and culture apparently not fit for purpose? What are the causes of so many failures in policy and strategic forecasting? Are they human frailties? Or are they systemic failures to embrace smartly new realities?Through hundreds of interviews and conversations, Nik Gowling and Chris Langdon have analysed the deep new challenges to the human capacity of leaders at the highest keels to accept, understand, embrace then handle the extraordinary processes of change and disruption. This essential book draws on the candid responses. The findings are scary and disconcerting.
