With the requirements of technology, transparency, and continuous connectedness, and demands higher performance, market leaders from leading line to the C-suite face sophisticated dilemmas that can't be easily rejected or postponed. These perplexing, repeating issues are familiar to anyone in a leadership role today, including:
- How must i balance my functional or business product goals with the needs of my peers and the complete company?
- How must i support and promote others while still improving my own career?
- How must i emphasize teamwork and still praise the "stars"?
- Can I must say i devote enough time and energy to both family and work?
These are not "problems" but paradoxes - situations in which there won't be a single right solution - and while they make many market leaders feel overwhelmed and challenged, this exceptional publication provides help.
The Unfinished Innovator is a modern handbook for realizing, facing, and motivating others to expose the real issues that underlie paradoxes in modern organizations. Market leaders must first discover situations they'll never be able to "solve" and understand how to confront the obstacles - in their own heads and their organizations - that press them toward seeking ultimate alternatives that don't are present. Leading through complexity requires giving up the illusion of control, uniformity, and closure, while embracing the reality of being entirely "unfinished". Attracting from interviews with 100 CEOs and top market leaders from a wide range of companies - such as Avon, Nike, Colgate, DeutschePost DHL, Johnson & Johnson, PepsiCo, and many more -
The Unfinished Innovator provides the mindsets and tools to identify contradictory requirements, understand contending demands, and still be able to take action. No one can find or even should look for perfect solutions to impossible situations.
The Unfinished Innovator will help leaders at all levels understand and excel at their true job: guiding themselves and their teams through ongoing paradoxes, reconciling contending outcomes, continually changing and adapting, and in that way building prolonged success.
