The missing piece
that makes the playbook work. Transformation
playbooks focused on strategy and execution can only lead to costly failures
when a business leader is hobbled by fatal emotional blind spots and thinking
traps. Whatever your transformation program, this book unblocks your path to
success by preparing you to lead with the boldness and speed required.
Leverages a
recognized voice of authority. Having been named a top retail thought leader by multiple organizations,
Dennis is a recognized authority on strategy and innovation. He is the author
of a bestselling retail business transformation book, an in-demand global
keynote speaker, a Forbes senior contributor, a podcast host, and a
frequent go-to commentator in business media.
Goes where most
business books fear to tread. As mindfulness, personal development, and emotional intelligence have
gained traction in the business community, readers are ready for advice that
pushes their buttons and prompts inner growth. Modeling the candor, courage,
and humility he calls on his readers to develop, Dennis shares first-hand
experiences, including deeply personal reflections on some of his own
shortcomings as a senior leader at two Fortune 500 companies.
Provides a call to
action. Much of the advice in the transformation space falls short of being
transformational itself. Good ideas are not enough when you're in a battle for
survival. Dennis's book makes
it plain that the urgent choice facing most organizations today is not between good
and better, but between thriving or irrelevance.
Target audiences
This book is aimed at CEOs, COOs, and business leaders across
a spectrum of industries tasked with overhauling their organizations in the
face of relentless economic and technological change. They've seen past
transformation programs result in lukewarm success or spectacular failure and
are seeking solutions that go beyond the standard business transformation
playbook.
