Learn the Framework That Will Help Your Company Get Though Cross-Pressures
Featuring exclusive lessons drawn from inside the business world, including from the CEOs of Harley-Davidson, Mubadala, Kering, Wells Fargo, and Box, this book teaches readers “Systems Leadership,” Siegel’s holistic framework helps leaders understand and handle five key cross-pressures:
-
Priorities: The need to succeed at both execution and innovation
-
People: The need to project both strength and empathy
-
Sphere of influence: The need to focus both internally and externally
-
Geography: The need to think both locally and globally
-
Purpose: The need to pursue both ambition and statesmanship
Leaders will learn to do four things: 1) Operate at Intersections – master the dualities needed to navigate these cross-pressures, 2) Manage context – help your people make sense of the confusing set of facts that they are seeing in their jobs and lives, 3) Think like a Product Manager – understand customer needs, how products are built, and the go-to-market strategies of your company, and finally 4) Run towards business and technological disruptions.
