Book Synopsis

In a world increasingly driven by artificial intelligence, leadership needs to move beyond the agile approach that dominated organizational leadership practices at the end of the 20th century. What is required now for successful leaders is a skillful juxtaposition of proactivity and humility, which we call guiding the tide.

Successful leaders of today must demonstrate personal agency in order to guide the tide of events around them rather than have the tide of events sweep them along. The tide, like a river within an ocean akin to a gulf stream, is a unique, ever-changing stream of business systems, technology, consumers, and competitors.

This book uses storytelling, examples, and clear, everyday language to blend leading-edge psychological research and leadership practices with the authorsâ own work in coaching, assessing, and developing leaders for three decades around the world. The book takes the reader on a journey through three major learnings:
