Praise for THE LEADER'S GUIDE TO RADICAL MANAGEMENT:

This masterful book is a delight to read—articulate, provocative and illuminating. It isn’t merely radical, it’s revolutionary! - Peter Guber CEO, Mandalay Entertainment Group

This is a wonderful book. It’s like having an extended conversation with Steve Denning, who is one of today’s most acute and creative critics of traditional management thinking. You would ignore the ideas in this witty, candid and erudite book at your own peril. Denning shows how to re-invent management based on a more accurate and effective understanding of how humans work best together. This book makes a great text for any extended discussion about how we should be doing things. - Laurence Prusak, Author of Working Knowledge and What’s the Big Idea?

Denning goes to the root of the management issues confronting companies today.  Focusing on seven core principles, he lays out a pragmatic roadmap for shifting the corporation from a focus on scalable efficiency to a focus on delighting the customer and each other, while achieving even higher levels of productivity. In the process, he creates a space where we all can more fully achieve our potential. - John Hagel, Co-Chairman, Deloitte Center for the Edge

The Leader’s Guide to Radical Management delivers. It delivers insight into why today’s broken institutions don’t work. It delivers the principles and practices that can reinvent them. It delivers powerful examples of organizations that are doing it —and some that aren’t — and it delivers the tools to help you start digging a new foundation. - Jim Kouzes, award-winning coauthor of the bestselling The Leadership Challenge  and The Truth About Leadership; Dean’s Executive Professor of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University

To reinvent America and the world, we desperately need radical, new leadership and management. Stephen shows the way. - Mark Victor Hansen, Co-creator of the series Chicken Soup for the Soul®
                               

The Leader’s Guide to Radical Management is the paradigm shift we have been looking for to guide us as we evolve.  This is the first book that focuses on what is truly important to being successful. - Matt Hlavin, President, Thogus Products Company

The Leader’s Guide to Radical Management reframes the way we think about management in a practical, application-driven way.  A must-read for anyone in a management position! - Ed Scanlan, CEO, Total Attorneys

This book contributes with principles on radical management and continuous innovation to support an Agile mindset in your entire organization. -Michael Holm, CEO, Systematic Software

“I’ve spent the last 35 years of my professional life bushwhacking my way towards what I now know, thanks to Steve Denning, is the nirvana called Radical Management.   It is a place where delighting customers is the religion and creativity, passion and learning are revered.  Denning’s Radical Management is the antidote to the greatest disease in the workplace today, mental resignation due to lack of purpose.  Radical Management should be required reading for anyone entering the work force or looking to reignite their inner bushwhacker! “ - Sam Bayer, CEO, b2b2dot0
