Breaking New Ground

"Every team of adventurers that start up a mountain expects to return. History shows clearly that not every team does. It is in this gap between expectation and reality that the dynamics of risk play out." Thus begins Breaking New Ground, a business book unlike all other business books. A short (24-page), photo-heavy work, it is dedicated entirely to setting perspective for engaging with the unknown. The equivalent of a photo-illustrated talk with a shaman before your walkabout, Breaking New Ground is designed to stock your mental toolbox with critical ideas that will make the difference between success and failure when the first tendrils of chaos begin to embrace your project. While written for senior executives, Breaking New Ground has reliably proven to be of priceless value to leaders of all levels - including those with no title at all but to whom the unacknowledged mantle of responsibility sometimes falls.
