Radical Transformational Leadership
Strategic Action for Change Agents
About The Book
Radical Transformational Leadership describes how we can generate equitable and enduring results using a unique response model based on extensive application world-wide in many sectors, themes and topics –the conscious full-spectrum response model. This model is designed for sourcing our inner capacities and wisdom to manifest change that embodies universal values of dignity, compassion and fairness, and simultaneously transform unworkable systems and norms in order to solve problems.
The book deconstructs fallacies that societies continue to promote related to self and the world around us, that leads to complacency and non-action. This book will not be useful for those who are satisfied with the world as it is today. This book is for people who have questions. It encourages us to question the status quo, ask relevant questions and generate insights that will generate prosperity, and establish equity and dignity.
Monica Sharma draws on more than thirty years of working for the United Nations and beyond to present a radical new approach to transformational leadership, one that creates systems of change where everyone can engage–not just analysts, policy makers, educators and business leaders. Demonstrating that we all can be architects of a new humanity, Monica Sharma demystifies policy-making, planning, and implementation so that everyone can play an informed and strategic part in eradicating the world’s most intractable problems. Using real life examples from around the world, she shows how our innate human attributes of universal compassion, our equity impulse, and human capability can create new patterns that: first, effectively address major challenges such as gross inequality, unbridled hate, conflicts based on social identity, and the ‘never-enough mind-set ‘; and second, realize our full potential to manifest universal prosperity. Written in a straight-forward, accessible style, this book outlines a path-breaking paradigm shift that is already generating equitable and sustainable results across the globe.
