Turn the tide and change the world
Scientists in Every Boardroom
Businesses are not maximising their scientific and technical human capital and are therefore missing out on innovation and growth opportunities. Global risks are intensifying, threatening the wellbeing of our children and future generations. These risks are a result of years of irrational decision-making; the world urgently needs rational thinking and less gut feeling. Having scientific thinkers at the leadership table can turn the tide.
This book hopes to inspire business and global leaders to focus on coaching Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Medicine (STEMM) professionals to become senior leaders within their organisations. It also seeks to empower STEMM professionals everywhere to pursue influential leadership roles and ensure they undertake leadership development programs that specifically cater to their needs. There is tremendous untapped power at the intersection of influential STEMM leadership and the transformation of organisations, and the world.
Scientists in Every Boardroom presents the results of extensive research, coaching case studies and interviews on leadership development in the hope that solutions can be found to what seems to be a crisis in rational leadership. It is not about criticising past and current leaders; it is about providing new avenues of leadership that will ensure a better way forward for all organisations and for the future of our planet.
About this book:
- It is the only book available that shows how to coach STEMM professionals to develop the leadership skills needed in the 21st Century, following cutting edge methods.
- It revolutionises the way both corporate business leaders and scientists themselves will think about STEMM professionals for leadership roles by providing real-life cease studies.
- With the new reality of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it offers new perspectives on how to tackle major world issues by developing STEMM leaders and promoting them within influential circles.
- Offers new avenues to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals while also helping companies become more innovative and profitable
