This book consists of guidelines and techniques to assist managers in transitioning into leaders. With increasing numbers of organizations shifting to the digital age, the traditional role of the manager is severely threatened with obsolescence.

Although the downsizing of the mid-level ranks has been ongoing for decades, there is now a forced urgency powered by the pressures of data-driven technologies to capture new markets, improve revenues, counter competitive interferences, as well as to reinvent the organization.

“If you don’t reinvent yourself, change your organization structure; if you don’t talk about speed of innovation, you’re going to get disrupted. And it’ll be a brutal disruption’ declared John Chambers, former CEO of Cisco Systems.

By empowering and reorienting managers and staff with the skills and mindsets of leadership, these individuals can penetrate deep into the organization and mobilize additional layers of potential leaders. Thus, the boundaries of job title no longer confine leadership.

Result: Systematically harnessing the creative powers embedded in an increasingly educated and experienced workforce would turn it into a dynamic and treasured resource for reinventing the organization.

Special feature: If you expect meaningful input from your people, it will come about only if they are trained, motivated, and disciplined. The book includes a Leader’s Toolkit, which provides an interactive system to make empowerment work for you. In turn, your digital-age employees will form the backbone of strategy teams to deal with the challenges of disruption.
