Unleash your Complexity Genius

Growing your inner capacity to lead

It feels like the world is spinning off its axis right now, and this underscores what’s always been true: there’s much about life, work, and the world that we just can’t control. But, as Jennifer Garvey Berger and Carolyn Coughlin show in their insight-packed new book UNLEASH YOUR COMPLEXITY GENIUS: Growing Your Inner Capacity to Lead (Stanford University Press, August 2022) there are methods—both mental and physical—to manage the confusion that paralyzes us in the face of unpredictability and compounding challenges. The authors explain how to tap into our innate human ability to handle the unknown and the overwhelming by using a genius that lies within all of us, and which is often switched off just when we need it most.

 

Bringing together research about human development and the science and wisdom of the body, as well as decades of experience coaching CEOs and industry leaders on how to hone their leadership skills, UNLEASHING YOUR COMPLEXITY GENIUS offers those who are overwhelmed and exhausted—most of us these days—an array of easy-to-implement practices for living and leading well in stressful times.
