Abstract

A whitewater ride calls for a particular type of leader – one with an acute sensitivity to the situation, a high degree of personal autonomy and the ability to discern and convey to others how things might play out more favorably for everybody. With the rapids as a backdrop, the author considers seven fundamental lessons on strategic leadership when navigating “permanent whitewater,” drawing on his career and experience as an executive coach and consultant.
