Generative Leadership: Releasing Life in a Turbulent World

Every single aspect of every corner of every human institution and network is in radical and dynamic change. Too many of the leaders we have are not only failing us but have become a danger to humanity. We share the anguish of how some people’s self-seeking ways and powers seem to be able to ride the waves of change while staying aloft on their privileges.

But we feel less inclined simply to fight what we fear and much more inclined to see where the hidden flows of life are present and leading–so that we can spend our energy on crafting lives and roles that are worthy of what comes next.

This book is the fruit of eighteen months of intense, lively collaboration by twenty-three people from seven countries on five continents! It is not about heroic leadership but, quite the opposite, about leadership that works generatively with life.
