Tomorrow's Global Leaders Today

Executive Reflection: Working Wisely In Turbulent Times

A New Style of Leadership for our Turbulent VUCA GVD World

 

Jackie Arnold from Coach4Executives Ltd. and Elaine Patterson from The Centre for Reflection, Creativity and Contemplative Spirituality. have co-authored a new book called TOMORROW’S GLOBAL LEADERS TODAY Executive Reflection: Working Wisely in Turbulent Times. 

Leaders now find themselves working globally and virtually with extreme uncertainty, rich diversity and unprecedented complexity (hence our new acronym GVD to work alongside the well-known acronym of VUCA).

The book calls for a fresh style of leadership called Executive Reflection – a radical approach for our radical times – which fills the void left by more traditional models and approaches. 

The book is based on new research, interviews and new thinking which enable us to resource, support and encourage the global leader – both in delivering their organisation’s purpose and playing their part in attaining the United Nations 2030 Seventeen Global Goals for Sustainable Development. The book is a call to action - to think globally and to act locally. 

We are now also working with the EMCC (European Coaching & Mentoring Council) Global Accreditation Team to explore implications for practitioner development, supervision and CPD.

 

"Through engaging in the techniques and methods of Executive Reflection, the authors offer leaders a distinct leadership approach and process that invites them to pause, take stock, be still and reflect as integral leadership practices. Rather than allowing the turbulence of today’s world to buffet and churn around them, here Executive Reflection provides leaders with inspiration, maps and resources so that they can choose how to act rather than being tossed from one reactive decision to another"

Dr. Alison Hodge, EMCC EIA Accredited Master Coach and EMCC ESIA Accredited Coaching Supervisor

 

"A timely and opportune, highly valuable contribution to the acute and chronic challenges of leadership, both now and tomorrow.  Jackie and Elaine take the latest neuro research and blend this with the tried and tested techniques of reflective practise to create an entirely new approach to leadership, fit for the post-modern world. The researchers have listened hard to the woes of global leaders and created a set of pragmatic tools, customised for, and adaptable to, an environment of systemic, unrelentless change and ambiguity. Accessible for all, I look forward to seeing Executive Reflection on the daily agenda of all managers and leaders, at every level of every organisation."
