How to Use This Book
THE PRACTICE OF Adaptive Leadership is a field book for two reasons: first, we have written it from the field, drawing on our experiences with thousands of people who are trying to create something better from the current reality.
Second, we have designed it for the field, to be of day-to-day utility in your own leadership efforts. As we wrote this book, we imagined you coming home after a particularly frustrating day at work trying to move an important initiative forward.
