Speed Leadership: A New Way to Lead for Rapidly Changing Times - Paperback

by Massimo Torinesi (Foreword by), Bob Emiliani (Author)

What if leadership could be improved the way we improve any other process - by identifying errors, setting standards, and making small daily changes?

Speed Leadership offers a radically practical alternative. Drawing on more than fifteen years of research and teaching, the author redefines leadership as something measurable: Leadership = di/dt, the rate of change in information over change in time.

Speed Leadership reframes leadership not as a matter of personality or competency, but as 15 day-to-day processes that every leader engages in: decision-making, planning, coaching, problem-solving, stakeholder engagement, and more. Each contains dozens of specific, identifiable errors that block information flow and quietly destroy performance.

With workbook-style exercises, executive-team discussion questions, and tools borrowed from continuous improvement, this book delivers a concrete pathway from amateur to professional leadership. Learn to "rightsize" your leadership, set standards for each process, and stop the organizational atherosclerosis silently killing your company.
