WINNER: Independent Press Awards 2021 - Leadership Bestselling and
award-winning author duo Chris Lewis and Pippa Malmgren are calling it
out. In The Infinite Leader, they argue that the spectacular
leadership failures that we have witnessed in recent history,
stretching across business, community life and politics, can be
explained by a lack of balance. Having spent centuries perfecting
processes and systems to maximize productivity and being indicted to
the shrine of numbers, KPI's and financial forecasting, we have to
admit, there are very few examples of sustainable and inspirational
leadership figures out there. By over-relying on the hard stuff, we
have disregarded whole dimensions of values that are desperately
needed when trying to engage communities of people towards a common
goal. The Infinite Leader is a roadmap to introducing balance back
into organizations. You can adapt your stance to the infinite
possibilities facing you as a leader, and balance the main quadrants
of the rational, emotional, spiritual and physical leader, to deliver
sustainable leadership with integrity. Business is still about people
- people operate across paradoxes and opposing forces, in a world that
confounds these influences. Leaders need to continuously juggle and
neutralize these to succeed. Be what your people need you to be and
learn what they don't teach you in business schools; remain analytical
and numbers-focused when needed, but also bring your heart, person and
integrity to leadership.
