520 1 $a Leadership in a Globalised World adopts a rich interdisciplinary approach to the challenges of leadership in the uncertain, complex world of the 21st century. The book combines a rich analytical framework, drawing especially on Drucker, with intriguing case study material. Not everyone will agree with all the arguments but this is nonetheless essential reading for policymakers, practitioners, and national and local leaders. - Arkebe Oqubay, Advisor to the Prime Minister of Ethiopia and Former Mayor of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Frannie Leautier provides an updated theoretical review and insights from personal research and experiences on coping with the challenges arising from rapid, complex, and unpredictable changes in our time. This book is an essential read for politicians, public sector officials, and corporate leaders in both developed and developing countries. - Justin Yifu Lin, Former Chief Economist, the World Bank Honorary Dean, National School of Development, Peking University, China The approach of the book to learn from experiences from real life is warmly welcome. The target groups for the book are both academics and practitioners. As the author writes, too often policy-makers (and also top civil servants) are ill equipped to identify major changes taking place all around the world. I highly recommend using the book as a background reader in management training; this is the textbook of the 21st century. - Anneli Temmes, Managing Director, Finnish Institute of Public Management, Finland Leadership in a Globalized World is an enlightening read. The author has crafted a very effective pedagogical approach to decision making under complex, dynamic and risky conditions. It is rich with practical examples, which cover a full array of countries and sectors. - Otaviano Canuto, former Vice-President at both World Bank and Inter-American Development Bank.
