Thirty-four years ago, I started my journey into high competency high-performance leadership with these words.
"The world only ever makes total sense. If it does not seem that way to you, that's because you are looking at the world from the wrong perspective. So, adjust your perspective until the world now makes total sense to you".
Thirty-four years later I have put most of what I have learned on that journey into 4 books.
Gary has decades of experience in transforming complex business systems from icons of unaffordable, incompetence into efficient, inspiring, and effective ones.
He is a master teacher of reproducible excellence and competency in innovation, product design, product development, and manufacturing processes and has worked alongside the leading thinkers in this field.
Gary’s style is direct, his experience extensive, his insight prophetic. His books, speeches, and course are for those who want the truth, not for those who abhor change and plain speaking.
Collectively, my four-book series firstly describe an EXODUS of leadership competencies across industry, bureaucracies, and politics that has major dystopic consequences for the future of industry, the engine room of our economy, our democracy, and our society.
Secondly, the books present a way of ESCAPE from this dystopia via a new type of leadership competencies that will transform our nation into a high-performance powerhouse nation able to deliver us to the Promised Land - a place where the hopes and dreams of our entire nation are fulfilled. A place where a reader might say: "YES, that is what I want for my future, the future of my kids, my nation's future".
