Publisher's summary

Leaders today - whether in corporations or associations, nonprofits, or nations - face massive, messy, multidimensional problems. No one person or group can possibly solve them; they require the broadest possible cooperation. But, says Harvard scholar Dean Williams, our leadership models are still essentially tribal: individuals with formal authority leading in the interest of their own group. In this deeply-needed new audiobook he outlines an approach that enables leaders to transcend internal and external boundaries and help people to collaborate, even people over whom they technically have no power.

Drawing on what he's learned from years of working in countries and organizations around the world, Williams shows leaders how to approach the delicate and creative work of boundary spanning, whether those boundaries are cultural, organizational, political, geographic, religious, or structural. Sometimes leaders themselves have to be the ones who cross the boundaries between groups. Other times, a leader's job is to build relational bridges between divided groups or even to completely break down the boundaries that block collaborative problem solving. By thinking about power and authority in a different way, leaders will become genuine change agents, able to heal wounds, resolve conflicts, and bring a fractured world together.

Indispensable si enfrentas desafíos arduos

Un gran libro que plantea muy bien la combinación entre casos reales de desafíos de liderazgo complejos y arduos, con la sabiduría de cómo abordarlos.
Muy útiles las preguntas de reflexión al final de cada capítulo.
Importante leerlo junto con tu equipo y trabajarlo en un taller para aterrizar los aprendizajes.
