Description
The second book in Bob Gorzynski's acclaimed strategic thinking trilogy. Much of the current management thinking is dominated by fear - fear of failure, fear of recession, fear of competition, fear of making a mistake, fear of going out on a limb...To succeed in the new economy requires courage, conviction, and a willingness to take risks - not necessarily financial risks, but personal risks, by having "courage for the truth" and finding the new way which others have feared to tread. Bob Gorzynski, author, lecturer, and business adviser, explains how strategic leaders should change their mindset and plan for a sustainable future in the 21st century.
