Our modern society is obsessed with intelligence. We highly value “smart” phones, “smart” cars, “smart” cities. Likewise, smart people impress us with their intellectual power and uncanny ability to achieve their goals. But smartness alone is not always sufficient to keep leaders out of trouble and sustain their success over time. Drawing on his book From Smart To Wise, innovation and leadership advisor Navi Radjou proposes a different and counterintuitive approach to leadership that goes beyond optimizing "smartness. Wise leadership, Radjou argues, means cultivating greater self-awareness, broadening one's perspective, integrating logic and intuition in decision-making, and acting with ethical clarity, discernment, flexibility, and authenticity. It's the foundation for lasting success in the purpose-driven post-digital society. Drawing on many inspiring real-life stories of wise leaders and innovators, Radjou will identify six capabilities you can cultivate and use to innovate and lead more effectively. As Navi puts it : "You can't out-smart AI, but you can out-wise it!"
