Our award-winning book, Leadership Agility, clearly describes the inner capacities and core competencies of highly agile leaders. With over twenty real-life stories, it also identifies the five stages or levels that managers move through to master leadership agility.
Written in an engaging, down-to-earth style, this ground-breaking book is designed as a roadmap that tells you how to bring increased agility to the initiatives you take every day — whether you want to improve working relationships, develop your team, or change your organization.
This 29-page white paper tells the story of an executive team that transformed themselves and their business by learning a new approach to high-impact conversations. It provides a detailed inside view of the learning process that takes place in our Pivotal Conversations Learning Lab.
The Leadership Agility white paper is essentially an executive summary of the book. It clarifies why agility has become essential to leadership effectiveness, outlines the levels of agility described in the book, identifies the four kinds of agility needed for successful leadership initiatives, and provides tips for increasing your leadership agility and helping others do the same.
The Leadership Agility Thought-Letter takes you beyond what you'll find in the book. It provides you with applications of Leadership Agility principles and methods that you can use every day, plus updates about Leadership Agility resources.
