“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

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;

“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
“The Leader’s Guide to Radical Management
accomplishes what no leadership book has been able to do in recent
times. It delivers clear insights on the impediments keeping most
institutions today from success. Beyond that though it provide
tools and means of overcoming these barriers in novel and often
counter-intuitive ways. A must read for leaders attempting to move
to the next level of performance.”
—Rob Cross, Professor, University of Virginia
