Description

Over the last few decades, power, information and resources havemoved from being concentrated in the hands of a few, to beingdisbursed across many. We need look no further than events on theworld stage to see the heat signature of this – from thearrival of Wikileaks, the Arab Spring of 2011 and the Occupymovements, to the social media revolution and flashpoints such asthe British Members of Parliament expenses scandal. All areexamples of deep change occurring. This book is about what this means for the workplace and formanagement. The proposition offered here is that ourorganisations need to catch up, and that the “death ofdeference” that we are seeing elsewhere in society needs tobe accelerated in the workplace. Systems of deference slow down organisational performance. Deference prevents organisations from learning. It stops themfrom being agile, innovative and ethical. Deference is theenemy of organisational success and it needs to be dismantled sothat in its place we can build modern organisations with a newbreed of managers and leaders. This book offers a solution toa problem that belongs in the last century, and a game plan fornothing short of a workplace revolution.
