Readings
A collection of books from the Vail Leadership alliance team and other thought leaders.
The turbulence in our culture, in our organizations and in our lives represents one of leadership’s greatest challenges. Peter Vaill uses the metaphor of “permanent white water” to describe the pace, confusion, and the jarring reality of change brought on by technology. He makes the case that an attitude of continual learning is the best strategy in these complex, unpredictable systems-driven environments.
Richard Leider’s book is a comprehensive guide to purpose, why it’s important in today’s fast-paced world, and how to identify it. Leider argues that American culture has become enslaved to an ethic of “more-better-faster” and is losing touch with the capacity for reflection and silence. He claims our modern technologies are actively isolating us from one another. High-tech is hijacking the high-touch.
A positive attitude affects everything in your life; putting this idea into action is the focus of this book. Harrell reminds us ways that changing your thinking can change your beliefs, which in turn can change your actions, and your destiny.
