Willful
Blindness: Why We Ignore the Obvious at Our Peril.
By Margaret Heffernan
In her latest book, Heffernan argues that the biggest threats and
dangers we face are the ones we don’t see – not because
they’re secret or invisible, but because we’re willfully
blind. She examines the phenomenon and traces its imprint in our
private and working lives, and within governments and organizations,
and asks: What makes us prefer ignorance? What are we so afraid
of? Why do some people see more than others? And how can we change?
Examining examples of willful blindness in the Catholic Church,
the SEC, Nazi Germany, Bernard Madoff’s investors, BP’s
safety record, the military in Afghanistan and the dog-eat-dog world
of subprime mortgage lenders, the book demonstrates how failing
to see — or admit to ourselves or our colleagues — the
issues and problems in plain sight can ruin private lives and bring
down corporations. The book explores how willful blindness develops
and then goes on to outline some of the mechanisms, structures and
strategies that institutions and individuals can use to combat it.
In its wide use of psychological research and examples from history,
the book has been compared to work by Malcolm Gladwell and Nicholas
Taleb.
Drive
- the surprising truth about what motivates us
By Daniel H. Pink
Forget everything you thought you knew about how to motivate people--at
work, at school, at home. It's wrong. As Daniel H. Pink explains
in his new and paradigm-shattering book Drive: The Surprising Truth
About What Motivates Us, the secret to high performance and satisfaction
in today's world is the deeply human need to direct our own lives,
to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and
our world. Find out more and buy this book here.
Future
of Management
By Gary Hamel & Bill Breen
What fuels long-term business success? Not operational excellence,
technology breakthroughs, or new business models, but management
innovation—new ways of mobilizing talent, allocating resources,
and formulating strategies. Through history, management innovation
has enabled companies to cross new performance thresholds and build
enduring advantages.
In The Future of Management, Gary Hamel argues that organizations
need management innovation now more than ever. Why? The management
paradigm of the last century—centered on control and efficiency—no
longer suffices in a world where adaptability and creativity drive
business success. To thrive in the future, companies must reinvent
management. Find out more and buy this book here.
