About this audiobook
How do we embrace being generative to sustain excellence in the workplace?
The modern working world doesn't leave much time for reflection. Leaders in particular are encouraged to speed ahead, make quick decisions, and seek swift solutions to any problem that may arise. However, the full-speed-ahead approach can backfire. By taking time to pause and reflect, it’s possible to notice new pathways and develop innovative solutions that allow for impactful results.
Executive coach Janet M. Harvey has worked with leaders and teams around the world to explore the common tensions that arise in the workplace. Her conclusion? Tension in the workplace is inevitable. It’s how you navigate it that determines whether you will sustain excellence—or flame out.
In this book, Janet explores the vehicle of generative change as one way to navigate tension in the workplace. Using real-life case studies and personal anecdotes, she compiles decades of her work as a coach to introduce readers to the vehicle of generative change. Each chapter includes activities and reflection exercises, making this an actionable guide that anyone can use to explore the value of generative change for themselves.
