As global forces of change disrupt business as usual, leaders are challenged with determining how to respond. When the rate of change accelerates, and conventional approaches break down, leaders are called on to innovate and adapt – to evolve.

So how do leaders design and orchestrate this evolution?

By recognizing their organization is a living system embedded in an ecosystem of collaborating organizations, made up of a diverse group of stakeholders and interests.

By expanding their perspective, seeing the wider ecosystem, with its essential relationships and interdependencies, and realizing they are co-evolving together.

By engaging a broader set of stakeholders and understanding their needs and desires in a new conversation about our collective evolution.

By viewing strategy as an ongoing dialogue and iterative process that generates new connections and insights across organizational silos and boundaries, so that new strategic responses can emerge and collective action can generate new value and relevance
