The flood of information, unprecedented transparency,
increasing interconnectedness-and our global
interde¬pendence-are dramatically reshaping today's world,
the world of business, and our lives. We are in the Era of
Behavior and the rules of the game have fundamentally
changed. It is no longer what you do that matters most and
sets you apart from others, but how you do what you do.
Whats are commodities, easily duplicated or
reverse-engineered. Sustainable advantage and enduring
success for organizations and the people who work for them
now lie in the realm of how, the new frontier of
conduct. For almost two decades, Dov Seidman's pioneering
organi¬zation, LRN, has helped some of the world's most
respected companies build "do it right," winning cultures
and inspire principled performance throughout their
organizations. Seidman's distinct vision of the world,
business, and human endeavor has helped enable more than 15
million people do¬ing business in more than 120 countries to
outbehave the competition. In HOW: Why HOW We Do Anything
Means Everything, Dov Seidman shares his unique approach
with you. Now updated and expanded, HOW includes a
new Fore¬word from President Bill Clinton and a new Preface
from Dov Seidman on why how we behave, lead, govern,
operate, consume, engender trust in our relationships, and
relate to others matters more than ever and in ways it never
has before. Through entertaining anecdotes, surprising
case studies, cutting-edge research in a wide range of
fields, and reveal¬ing interviews with a diverse group of
leaders, business executives, experts, and everyday people
on the front lines, this book explores how we think, how we
behave, how we lead, and how we govern our institutions and
ourselves to uncover the values-inspired "hows" of
twenty-first-century success and significance. Divided
into four comprehensive parts, this insightful
book: - Exposes the forces and factors that have
fundamentally restructured the world in which organizations
operate and their people conduct themselves, placing a new
focus on their hows
- Provides frameworks to help you
understand those hows and implement them in powerful and
productive ways
- Helps you channel your actions and
decisions in order to thrive uniquely within today's new
realities
- Sheds light on the systems of how-the
dynamics between people that shape organizational
culture-andintroduces a bold new vision for leading and
winning through self-governance
The qualities
that many once thought of as "soft"-values, trust, and
reputation-are now the hard currency of success and the
ultimate drivers of efficiency, performance, innova¬tion,
and growth. With in-depth insights and practical
advice, HOW will help you bring excellence and
significance to your business endeavors- and your life-and
refocus your efforts in powerful new ways. If you want to
stand out, to thrive in our fast changing, hyper¬connected,
and hypertransparent world, read this book and discover
HOW.
