How the turmoil of recent years gives leaders an unprecedented
opportunity to redesign global strategies and systems and to remobilize
toward a smarter, more resilient, and equitable future.
How can leaders faced with tremendous global upheaval create more
resilient and trustworthy systems? In The Great Remobilization, Olaf
Groth, Mark Esposito, and Terence Tse (along with research partner Dan
Zehr) diagnose tectonic shifts in the global economy with an eye toward
designing a smarter "operating system" for the world. Through their
FLP-IT (forces, logic, phenomena, impact, and triage) framework for
strategic leadership, the authors chart a path forward, providing
guidance for a new breed of "design activist leader." Focusing on key
tectonic shifts they call the Five Cs--COVID and pandemic management,
the cognitive economy and crypto, cybersecurity, climate change and
carbon management, and China--they examine the implications that new
forces and logics will have on countries, organizations, and
individuals.
Drawing from one hundred interviews and conversations with top-level
executives, entrepreneurs, policymakers, diplomats, generals, scholars,
and other leading experts from around the world, the authors show how to
create new inclusive visions with the aim of rebuilding the trust that
will allow for both human and economic growth. Insightful and
forward-thinking, The Great Remobilization powerfully illustrates the
rare opportunity that we have in this historic moment to actively
redesign our fragile, overpressurized global systems and develop new
strategies and leadership approaches for the future. Authored by three
scholar-practitioners, their synthetic perspectives and insights are at
once rooted in deep research and focused on relevance for leaders and
their organizations.
