Leadership Unraveled: Handbook for Leaders in a Polarizing World

"A lot of different flowers make a bouquet" is an Islamic proverb that beautifully reflects our society and our organizations. Never before have so many different cultures and generations lived and worked together and never before have we been so aware of the differences in our "being" and "thinking." But how can we build bridges between these differences instead of further fueling polarization?

Leadership to the rescue!

Leadership Unraveled starts from the belief that everyone can develop their leadership potential. Based on the authors' projects at hundreds of organizations, they have developed a leadership model with 21 drivers. Theory and real-life examples, models and practical tips are interspersed by interviews with inspiring leaders including Ilham Kadri and Wim Dejonghe.

This book invites you to not only enjoy the insights but also to actively use them. The main takeaways at the end of each chapter serve as a good starting point for your personal action plan. Whether you're an aspiring leader, a seasoned executive, or anywhere in between, this book will provide you with the guidance and insights needed to enhance your leadership skills, embracing the challenges of diversity in thinking and being.
