In his typically compelling and lucid way, Michael Genovese has distilled the essence of the new era of 'hyper-change' that challenges, if not threatens, humanity. With wit and clarity, Genovese plots out a futurist road map for leaders in the public and private sectors to confront the four great global challenges: technology, environment, globalization, and demographics. Genovese helps us see around the curve. - Robert J.

The burden of leadership is largely the burden of facing the future. In the coming decades, the weight of that burden will only increase as the speed of change continues to accelerate. And to understand the implications of that acceleration, there is no better place to start than with Michael Genovese's thoughtful and engaging study The Future of Leadership, which offers a game plan for the future in the form of leveraged leadership. - Norman W. Provizer, Professor of Political Science and Director of the Golda Meir Center for Political Leadership, Metropolitan State University of Denver, USA
However, the bullet-like style and short paragraphs likely assist in the generation of some useful ideas for those wanting to rethink their conceptions about current leadership practices or approaches, especially about adaptive leadership. -Francis C. Staskon, PhD, Senior Analyst at Walgreens
