The pandemic was a great time to write a book so that is how I spent many of my nomadic hours; reflecting, researching, reaching out to many of you for interviews and insights, and writing. It’s now nearly ready to share!
As the fog of the pandemic lifts, we are being called to make faster strides in more strained settings while the environments we operate in are evolving at breakneck speeds. My book focuses on supporting leaders at organizations working on some of our most pressing issues (e.g. environment, education, economy) in designing experiences that generate group genius and deep engagement among their teams. The objective of publishing this book is to share my learnings on how mission driven organization go about creating inclusive, creative and productive cultures.
While we step back into brick and mortar offices, hybrid environments and/or remain remote, we are re-learning how to effectively collaborate. I've spent the last several months interviewing leaders who are effectively navigating the evolving world of work to incorporate their innovative practices, creative work-arounds and deep insights into the book.
Currently, I'm in the final stages of editing, securing illustrations and self-publishing through major online retailers. Expecting this process to take another 60 days or so, and wanting to share the content ASAP, via this newsletter I will be sharing a section a week. If there is an emerging leader or a member of your executive team who needs support in better engaging and aligning their teams, please have them sign up to receive the book in bite-sized chunks over the course of the coming months:
Everything I’ve written has been informed by the mentors who have generously shared their wisdom with me; the titans of psychology, business and consulting whose books and articles have provided deeper understandings of human dynamics; by the clients who have created rich learning labs; by you who have supported and given helpful feedback along the way. Thank you for your support, generosity and trust along the way - I'm excited to share Generating Group Genius with you.
