A startlingly insightful exploration of contemporary leadership.

In Ruthlessly Caring: And other paradoxical mindsets leaders need to be future-fit, leadership strategist Amy Walters Cohen delivers a one-of-a-kind insight into contemporary business leadership. In the book, youโ€™ll explore how the leadership environment is being radically redefined by 12 megatrends and how five paradoxical mindsets are necessary for achieving high performance and effective decision-making in this new era of business. From ambitious appreciation to political virtue, humble confidence, and responsible daring, youโ€™ll discover how to develop and expand your leadership identity.

Whilst being heavily based in research, this revolutionary approach takes a practical look at the day-to-day realities of leading in business, offering fresh insight into how to tackle tough decisions, change behaviour, and evolve habits to become future-fit and thrive in a modern environment.

The author shows you how to:

  • Weave together multiple, seemingly contradictory, mindsets to enhance decision making and day-to-day leadership
  • Adapt to the megatrends that are driving much of the change we see throughout the world
  • Shake up the thinking, habits, and behaviours that are holding you back from unleashing your full potential as a leader

An indispensable roadmap to leading modern organisations, Ruthlessly Caring is a must-read for c-suite executives, directors, senior managers, and aspiring business leaders who hope to perform well in their role and get the best out of themselves and the people they lead.
