Reviews

A great guide and resource...one of the more immediately applicable books you'll read this year. * 800-CEO-READ * This is a well-written, accessible account of what managers can learn from design to improve their practices and provide greater leadership for their organizations. Quayle's book builds on sound theoretical insights, but brings those insights to ground in practical applications that managers of all levels can appreciate. The book emphasizes opportunities rather than problems, and in this the author offers a positive perspective. Designed Leadership means more effective leadership, and this is something that we need more than ever in a complex and changing world. -- Richard Buchanan, Weatherhead School of Management, Case Western Reserve University This book contributes a very thoughtful set of observations about the principles and practices of successful leaders who rely on a 'strategic design' approach. Moura Quayle draws on a diverse and impressive range of personal leadership experiences to illustrate and emphasize her points. Insightful, yet still accessible. -- Jeanne Liedtka, University of Virginia Darden School of Business
