Executive Summary - The Idea in Brief
If the pace of change within an organisation is slower than the pace of change in its environment – it will become irrelevant.
In any time of significant disruptive change, some organisations adapt, some die or fade, and some new organisations emerge with a DNA better adapted to thrive in the current environment.
We define adaptive leadership as the mindset, skills and practices that help us respond effectively in the face of a rapidly changing, unpredictable, or unknown environment.
Leading adaptation is not easy. The skills required are very different to those that serve us well in more stable times, and there are several traps that can inhibit us. Fortunately, there are some standout organisations and leaders who can teach us a lot about how to not only survive but thrive in an environment of constant change.
