    Trade Review

    "The world has become overwhelmingly complex, and new models of leadership are required. In Leadership on a Blockchain, Dr. Corbett expertly, succinctly, and with deep insight details the future of leadership: distributed, connected, and networked." Professor George Siemens, Centre for Change and Complexity in Learning, University of South Australia, Australia

    "Dr. Corbett’s idea of Leadership on a Blockchain is a winning model for new-age leaders. It promotes the idea of distributed leadership, which is key to building the right culture in the digital age. The book is deeply strategic and highly actionable." Dheeraj Sinha, CEO, Leo Burnett South Asia; Chairman, BBH, India

    "Leadership on a Blockchain is a rallying cry to redefine leadership: no longer personified in a singular senior individual; it is instead an organization-wide system of distributed decision-making, expertise, and empowerment. With the accelerated economic, technological, and social change, never has this new idea of leadership been more critical to success." Justin Halim, Expert Partner, Bain & Company Southeast Asia, Singapore
