Leadership in Changing Times: How Adaptive Leadership is Replacing Classic Leadership in a Post-Pandemic World peels back the layers of the leadership “onion” to determine whether leading during changing times is really complicated or if we are simply making it complicated.

  • is personal!  The publication includes anecdotes, quotes, stories, and examples from the author’s experience as a leader in the corporate world and as an entrepreneur.
  • provides perspective on how leaders need to adapt to keep up with the frenetic pace of change that is occurring today.
  • promotes intellectual curiosity by describing the differences between leaders and managers, questioning whether leaders are born or made, and defining the biggest challenge leaders will face: connecting with the changing audience (i.e., diversity, equity, and inclusion).
  • is a leadership guide for young professionals who want to plan their leadership journey as an entrepreneur or a corporate maven. In addition, it is invaluable for seasoned leaders who are discovering their self-actualization while leaving a legacy.
  • integrates first-hand expert advice from Fortune 100 Leaders – Michael Fung, Doug Hammond, Farooq Kathwari, Eileen McDonnell, and Kathleen Murphy.
