The 10X Leader: Breaking the Rules of Conventional Leadership

DEAR LEADER, THE WORLD AROUND YOU HAS CHANGED. HAVE YOU? Leadership expert Pawan Verma introduces you to a new kind of leader, the 10X leader—the one who looks at leadership as a responsibility to make the world a better place to live. Equipped with a larger purpose and a future-oriented mindset, this 10X leader harnesses the power of ideas and networks to transform businesses and societies, and above all, our lives and experiences. Verma presents a new approach, termed AGILE (Alive and Adaptive, Grit, Innovation, Learning and Excellence), that suggests how to deal with the volatility, uncertainty, complexities, and ambiguities of the VUCA world and create order out of chaos. It also emphasizes some of the fundamental human values—love, joy, peace, and hope—that are highly celebrated but rarely utilized at workplace. This book is carefully designed to help contemporary leaders get rid of the Industrial Age mindset and cultivate new beliefs and practices relevant to our times. It offers a refreshing perspective that has a huge potential of transforming lives and societies. Verma’s message to the leader in you is clear: Don’t think outside the box. Do away with the box itself!
