Communication expert and leadership coach Shawn Kent Hayashi has spent more than two decades studying how the things people say impact their business and professional lives.

Michael is CEO of a $64 billion global corporation, driving a strategy founded on productivity and growth. Despite having "best practices" spearheaded by finance in place, he's convinced that many of the company's investments in change are still not delivering the most value they can - or even the value they promised.

"How do I manage time? There just aren't enough hours in a day to accomplish everything!" The one thing that is in perpetual motion is time. It doesn't stop, we can't add more hours to our day, and it is always moving forward.

"Dans un monde qui bouge, il vaut mieux penser le changement que changer le pansement", avait prévenu le regretté Francis Blanche. Pourtant dans notre montre qui bouge, le changement n'est pas toujours bien pensé. La conduite d'une démarche de changement dure plus longtemps que prévu, coûte plus cher que prévu ou est abandonnée pour revenir à l'état initial. Les bonnes intentions et l'engagement des décideurs, la pertinence du but recherché ne sont pas des garanties de succès

Transformation has everything to do with how we give of ourselves to one another and the difference that makes. It is about how we live together, work together, change together, and lead together. Part of this transition is the transformation of human purpose. Do we define ourselves by the roles that we serve in institutions? Or, do we define ourselves by the impact we seek to create?

La conduite d'une démarche de changement est un exercice difficile. Souvent, elle dure plus longtemps que prévu, coûte plus cher que prévu et est parfois même abandonnée pour revenir vite à l'état initial. Les bonnes intentions et l'engagement des décideurs, la pertinence du but recherché ne sont pas des garanties de succès. Il ne suffit pas d'expliquer que le changement proposé est bon, intelligent, utile, stratégique. Le changement est aussi question de méthode et d'outils.

As biological creatures, we are wired to respond to change, and our ability to do so has enabled our species to thrive. In Adaptagility, Derrick Mains leverages this essential insight, honed from nearly three decades as a leading operational consultant, to forge a unique approach to process, systems, and change. Derrick’s method not only focuses on the boardroom, but also tackles the instinctual barriers created by human evolution and biology that cause change to fail.

All successful leaders stand on the shoulders of their mentor giants—people who saw something in them they may not have seen in themselves and helped them redefine what was possible. The relationships transform both parties into better versions of themselves and can uplift entire organizations and even society itself.

Written by a collaborative, diverse, and inclusive community of contributors and business experts, this book is about leading transformational change on an individual, team, organizational, and societal level.

Bold leaders in existing organizations see well beyond the current business, see the potential available to them, and both appreciate and relish the transformational challenge to win. They will invent the future from the position they start with today. Do you know who the bold leaders are in your organization?
