Our one-leader-at-a-time past has given way to a present reality where everyone has the potential to lead in every aspect of life. We all have at our fingertips the tools of change that were once available to just a few - and The shift from one-leader-at-a-time to everyone-leading-in-every-moment has created a changemaker effect on society. Change is no longer linear and faster, it's explosive and omnidirectional. THE CHANGEMAKER PLAYBOOK will show you how to thrive in every aspect of today's transformed societal landscape. A tutorial on the principles of empathy-based ethics and co-creative teamwork, THE CHANGEMAKER PLAYBOOK is as much a leadership handbook as it is a guide to personal achievement. Based on the author's discoveries about leading in change from front-edge thinkers - business and social entrepreneurs, educators, media thought leaders and youth changemakers - who distinguish themselves by putting their bold ideas and entrepreneurial capacities to work for the good of all, readers can apply the principles in this bookto every aspect of their lives. This book is less about getting ahead and more about getting along - because in the world we have entered, this is the central principle underlying the new success formula.

2020 Book Excellence Award Winner How any leader can deliver business-changing innovation now. Any leader in any size company, no matter the size or sector, feels the pressure to innovate, find new ideas and business models, and create enduring customer value. There is no one formula or set process to find and execute the ideas that achieve these goals; customers set moving targets, shareholders are unforgiving and demanding, and society expects companies to care about much more than the bottom line. The fast and furious forces of change stimulated by technology, demographics, lifestyles, and economic, environmental, political and regulatory impacts -- or any number of these in combination – are easy to see. They are easy to talk about. They are easy to intellectualize. The problem? The answers are hard to execute and require nuanced combinations of leadership, skills, strategy and tactics. On top of that, innovation has moved from an abstraction that will matter at some distant date to a front-and-center deliverable that must show evidence of impact in the space of the calendar quarter. In the stories, tools, techniques and advice inside The Change Maker’s Playbook, leaders will find tangible steps to find and safeguard the plans that will deliver the sustainable business-changing impacts – new customers, new relationships, new sources of value and growth— their businesses need. Separated from the pack of academic and consultant innovation theories, Radin’s approach stems from her own experience sitting in the innovation hot seat at some of the world’s most demanding companies and is bolstered by interviews with 50 corporate executives, founders and startup investors representing media, e-commerce, payments, healthcare, government, professional services, and not-for-profit sectors. The book walks readers through Radin’s adaptive, 9-part framework, engaging them in ready-to-apply techniques. Her work shows leaders how to find the big ideas that will meaningfully address customer needs, take the insight from idea through implementation in a way that delivers in the short and long-term for the organization, and lead effectively through the obstacles that tend to derail or diminish innovation. Three phases – Seeking, Seeding and Scaling – organize the framework within an intuitive, logical and useable format, with concrete actions outlined every step of the way. The answer to the dilemma every business faces today is that innovation is exhilarating, rewarding and even fun when it is approached as a unique challenge, but it can also be polarizing, unpredictable, and scary. Success requires that leaders rethink how they lead innovation. Leaders know they must set aside preconceived notions of what works, and look to those who have already walked in their shoes. This is why The Change Maker’s Playbook was written, and why it will become an ongoing resource for any innovation leader.

Becoming a Changemaker is a radically inclusive playbook for leading positive change. It's a fresh, inspiring, and research-backed guide to developing the mindsets and leadership skills needed to navigate, shape, and lead change and to thrive amidst uncertainty. A faculty member at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business, Budak created and teaches the wildly popular course "Becoming a Changemaker," which has quickly grown into one of the most highly-rated courses anywhere on campus. It's regularly heralded by students as "transformative" and "life changing" but to date has only been accessible to students attending UC Berkeley. Budak is driven by the belief that anyone--regardless of title, personality, race, gender, age, or class--can be a changemaker. This inclusive vision of leadership is the beating heart of the "Becoming a Changemaker" course, and is the driving force for the book as well. Tailored to the millennial/Gen Z set who are exiting school and entering the workforce, this book makes the lessons, insights, examples and excitement from class accessible to all.

"Facing urgent social problems, we are drawn to quick fixes. This book, however, shows that slowing down to listen closely, build broad support, and explore unconventional ideas leads to lasting solutions. Society celebrates leaders who promise fast, easy solutions to the world's problems-but quick fixes are an illusion. The truth is, companies, relationships, and the world are all changed with slow, intentional actions. The author, a globally acclaimed social entrepreneur, offers a five-step process for taking the slow lane to change-the lane that gets you to the right place faster: Listening-to build trust, which can change hearts and minds and allow for something new to emerge; Holding the urgency-to accept that even in moments of crisis you can move only at the speed of trust instead of rushing into action; Sharing the agency-to create an inclusive environment where everyone can lead; Healing democracy-to build bridges that allow marginalized people to participate; Maintaining curiosity-to be inspired by nontraditional sources. The Slow Lane teaches that quick fixes are just mirages that fade, leaving us with the same broken systems. By following the principles taught in this book, readers can create lasting change through intentionality"--

With a foreword by Alex Osterwalder. The future of work is already here. Customers are adopting disruptive technologies faster than your company can adapt. When your customers are delighted, they can amplify your message in ways that were never before possible. But when your company’s performance runs short of what you’ve promised, customers can seize control of your brand message, spreading their disappointment and frustration faster than you can keep up. To keep pace with today’s connected customers, your company must become a connected company. That means deeply engaging with workers, partners, and customers, changing how work is done, how you measure success, and how performance is rewarded. It requires a new way of thinking about your company: less like a machine to be controlled, and more like a complex, dynamic system that can learn and adapt over time. Connected companies have the advantage, because they learn and move faster than their competitors. While others work in isolation, they link into rich networks of possibility and expand their influence. Connected companies around the world are aggressively acquiring customers and disrupting the competition. In The Connected Company, we examine what they’re doing, how they’re doing it, and why it works. And we show you how your company can use the same principles to adapt—and thrive—in today’s ever-changing global marketplace.
