By applying a concept known as family systems theory, managers and leaders can understand how their past influences their behavior.
"Professional growth can get stymied for all sorts of reasons. But one of the most important is rarely discussed: ... ghosts from your past."
"The pace of change is accelerating swiftly. A nimble organisation adapts quickly by having three types of leaders."
"...any kind of leadership...in today's fast-paced, complex world really needs 'distributed leadership'–leadership at all levels."
“...it is important to note that there are many different leadership capabilities that organizations also need to foster and reward.”
MIT prof. Deborah Ancona speaks about the Immunity to Change...It’s hard, but you can change when you understand it.
"The world is changing, and leaders need to adapt...they need to evolve their leadership behaviors to survive.”
“Managers now realize they need to engage and motivate the bottom parts of the organization to lead upwards with their ideas and innovations."
