From taxi rides, hotel stays, car driving, to communicating and paying, everything we knew as normal has changed beyond recognition. To lead effectively in today’s brave new world, you have to question EVERYTHING.

For the first time in human history, knowledge is free and almost every boundary to communication has been lifted. This open source world has permanently altered the business landscape. And you can count on the fact that the pace of change will only accelerate. Yet . . . companies still rely on management tools and practices that were, at best, mildly effective in their heyday.

In Open Source Leadership, Rajeev Peshawaria reveals the vision, insight, and practices he has used to help some of today’s largest and most influential organizations meet the open source world head on. It all starts with asking the right questions:

  • What’s the most effective leadership style in a world of 24/7 connectivity?
  • How has the very concept of leadership changed in the open source era?
  • How do you inspire and reward performance in the “gig economy”?
  • How do you measure engagement and effectively address the gaps?
  • How can you lead innovation—quickly and continuously?

Peshawaria reveals the answers to these questions—and they will surprise you. Based on his company’s groundbreaking research spanning 28 countries, he concludes that traditional industrial age thinking needs a massive upgrade to successfully navigating the brave new world of business. Open Source Leadership rewrites the rules of management, giving you a unique look at the most common misperceptions, illusions, and downright wrong information you’ve been getting about what works and what doesn’t.  It provides a new, counterintuitive model for seizing competitive edge in any industry. Among other issues the book argues convincingly that “positive autocracy” must replace democratic leadership; talent and innovation are abundant not scarce; early identification of high-potentials is counter-productive; and setting employees free to do as little as they want will increase productivity.

從出租車乘車、飯店住宿、開車、溝通和支付等方方面面,我們所熟悉的一切已經變得面目全非。要在今天的全新世界中有效領導,你必須對一切事物提出質疑。

在人類歷史上首次,知識是免費的,幾乎所有溝通的障礙都已被消除。這個開放源碼的世界已經永久改變了商業環境。而且你可以肯定,變化的速度只會加快。然而...公司仍然依賴於在它們的全盛時期最多只能起到輕微效果的管理工具和實踐。

在《開放源碼領導力》一書中,Rajeev Peshawaria揭示了他所使用的願景、洞察力和實踐,幫助一些當今最大和最有影響力的組織迎接開放源碼世界的挑戰。一切都始於提出正確的問題:

- 在全天候連接的世界中,最有效的領導風格是什麼?
- 在開放源碼時代,領導的概念如何改變?
- 如何在“零工經濟”中激勵和獎勵表現?
- 如何衡量參與度並有效解決差距?
- 如何快速且持續地引領創新?

Peshawaria揭示了這些問題的答案,它們會讓你感到驚訝。根據他公司在28個國家進行的開創性研究,他得出結論,傳統的工業時代思維需要大幅升級,以成功地在商業的全新世界中航行。《開放源碼領導力》重新撰寫了管理規則,為你提供了一個獨特的視角,揭示了關於什麼有效、什麼無效的最常見的誤解、幻覺和錯誤信息。它提供了一個新的、反直覺的模型,以在任何行業中獲得競爭優勢。此外,該書還有其他觀點,令人信服地主張“積極專制”必須取代民主領導;人才和創新是豐富而不是稀缺的;早期識別高潛力人才是有害的;讓員工自由做他們想做的事情將提高生產力。
