Description
We live in a world informed by innovation. And yet, too many leaders in the knowledge sector are relying on instinctive, outdated—sometimes even toxic—methods to guide their teams.
It’s time for management to start innovating, too. In this bold new approach to leadership, sought-after executive coach, speaker, and author Melanie Parish shows you how to approach projects and situations with a scientist’s mindset—testing hypotheses and analyzing results in a systematic way that will enable you to experiment and refine how you deal with challenges and opportunities.

Editorial Reviews
If failure is not an option, then neither is success. In this groundbreaking book, Melanie Parish helps each of us see that leadership isn't a fancy form of management, it's something far more urgent, important and complex.
