Praise for The Vision Code

'Most people think vision is something you are born with. Either you have it or you don't. But from reading Oleg Konovalov's The Vision Code, you will learn that vision is a competence that you can nurture - by thinking boldly, keeping an open mind and getting out of your own way. As a CEO, I've come to realize from reading The Vision Code that vision is my single most valuable tool. It literally allows you to choose your company's future'.

The Vision Code is a fascinating blueprint for mastering a vision and becoming a true visionary'.

Eric Schurenberg, CEO at Inc. and Fast Company

'Vision is essential to successful leadership, but often misunderstood and poorly conceived. In this insightful guide, Oleg Konovalov lays out his own compelling vision for what visionary leadership consists of and where its value lies, presenting it as a simple yet very practical business tool. The Vision Code defines a new stage in visionary leadership development'.

Courtney Fingar, editor-in-chief, FDI, New Statesman Media Group

'Success thrives on a clear and vivid vision that is a property of a few so far. Being able to craft an inspiring vision is what makes the difference between great leaders and conventional managers. So far, it has been thought that visionary leaders are born, that it is a natural gift for solely a few lucky ones. Yet, Oleg's book, The Vision Code, proves the contrary. In a very engaging way, Oleg's book walks us through a series of interviews and teaches us that every manager can learn how to draft a compelling and inspiring vision.

Having a vision of a vision is a superior mastery that Oleg Konovalov used for presenting vision as a practical business tool accessible to all. The Vision Code changes the rules of the game in today's fast-changing world'.

In doing so, Oleg Konovalov has contributed significantly to establishing the theory of vision on firm ground. You should read this book not once, but twice!'
