Über dieses Buch

This book gives a transformative explanation of how cutting-edge neuroscience can help business leaders set a course toward better management. Strategic leaders, it shows, play the role of wise advocates: able to go beyond day-to-day transactional behavior to a longer-term, broader perspective that articulates their organization’s deeper purpose.

Rezensionen

James O'Toole, Daniels Distinguished Professor of Business Ethics, University of Denver - Daniels College of Business:
This book is timely. By emphasizing the topics of wisdom, the high vs. low roads, and ethics, the authors make a unique contribution. While some of today’s university-based leadership and management researchers tend to ignore ethics, organizational context, and practical business considerations, the authors' approach is sensitive to those applied concerns.

Jon R. Katzenbach, coauthor of The Wisdom of Teams and The Critical Few:
When an organization commits to meaningful change, its leaders face very challenging choices every day. The Wise Advocate is about what happens in those moments and how the best leaders help move their cultures forward. The book is clearly understandable for people at multiple levels across a diversity of cultural situations.

Heidi Grant, PhD, chief science officer at the NeuroLeadership Institute, and author of Nine Things Successful People Do Differently:
You have choices. As a leader making decisions that impact your business, and as a person making decisions that impact your life, you don’t have to be a prisoner of the default and (nearly) automatic ways in which your brain attends to information. You don’t have to take the road everyone else travels. You can learn to guide your own attention and thinking, to make decisions that stand the test of time. Your first choice, fortunately, is an easy one—read The Wise Advocate.

Marshall Goldsmith, author of Triggers, MOJO, and What Got You Here Won’t Get You There.:
The Wise Advocate is a key book for aspiring leaders aiming to make the best—and hardest—choices. The authors provide a practical guide to decision making through a combination of neuroscience concepts, a process of self-reflection, and consideration of the greatest good for the people one must lead.
