Consilience Leadership: Using Innovative Ideas from Economics, Science, and Neuropsychology to Create Breakthroughs in Leading Organizations

Consilience Leadership introduces business leaders to the multitude of ways that science in all its forms is helping to transform the art of leadership into the science of leadership. What do Osama Bin Laden's death, April's deadly tornados in the southern US, the "Arab Spring," and recent comments from the US Coast Guard and others about the Deepwater Disaster all have in common? They all are examples of what leaders can learn from Consilience Leadership. Cook demonstrates how lessons learned from Highly Reliable Organization theory, behavioral economics, neuroscience and other disciplines are helping us understand how to better deal with terrorism and Katrina-like disasters. You and your organization can learn to better anticipate and avoid political and other disasters by reading Gary Cook's new book.
