We can't any longer debate whether we want change or not, we have to embrace it.  The book provokes business leaders into thinking about the future - in particular two hugely important factors. Firstly, developing a positive, confident mindset in the workforce through developing mental toughness. Secondly, applying real leadership behaviours that engender trust from staff. The most important thing though is to be alert to change and what it means for all stakeholders. This book helps the reader to do just that.\" * Neil Scales, Director-General, Dept. of Transportation and Main Roads *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eChapter - 00: \tIntroduction;\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSection - ONE:  Change in the 21st century;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 01: \tA general overview – Doug Strycharczyk;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 02: \tThe new factors – Doug Strycharczyk;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 03: \tMental toughness – Professor Peter Clough, Dr Fiona Earle, Dr Keith Earle, Dr John Perry and Doug Strycharczyk;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 04: \tTrust-based leadership and resilient organizations in the 21st century – Charles Elvin;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 05: \tLeadership, resilience and the 21st-century organization – Professor Sharon Turnbull and Rob Noble;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSection - TWO:  Practitioner perspectives;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 06: \tLeadership and the BP grit in the oyster – developing mental toughness – Jo Shuttlewood and Rachel Billington;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 07: \tChanging times for the public sector – Zoe Sweet and Jo Carruthers;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 08: \tNew realities: Personal growth for an uncertain future – Sue Pinder, Raymond Robertson and Craig Thomson;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 09: \tEthics, ethical practice and their growing importance in developing sustainably performing organizations in the 21st century – Richard Cresswell and Murray Clark;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter - 10: \tBig data, big business – Andrew Cuthbert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kogan Page Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49404526690647,"sku":"9780749470098","price":31.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780749470098.jpg?v=1730486728","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/developing-resilient-organizations-9780749470098","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
