Evolutionary Leadership
"I find this a wonderful book and recognised a lot in it, as well as learned a lot from it. It is a great synthesis of what leading thinkers such as Wilber, Beck and Cohen have developed over the last years, all with a personal flavour. That in itself would be a worthy publication. But you also identify the consequences of this perspective in what I see as a new way, and take it to a practical level for individuals as well as for organisations. Theory and practice in one, and short and succinct at that. Good work!" - Herman Wijffels, former CEO of Rabobank and World Bank Director"I was left feeling full of admiration and even hopeful about our future possibilities of reconnecting people to our world. The writing style is both both insightful and accessible, it has a genuine quality about it - refreshing in our largely egocentric world." - Rory Hendriks, Ashridge International Business School"We need leadership that moves our world beyond the status quo, for the status quo is not tenable -- the essence of 'unsustainability.'  This means that we need evolutionary leadership.  Peter Merry's book gives the gist of why we need it and, above all, what we can do about it: how we can become a responsible 'evolutionary leader.' Recommended reading for everyone seeking to be a responsible, aware, and modest but true leader." -Prof Ervin Laszlo"Unlike many who profess to grasp Spiral Dynamics or the Integral perspective, Peter Merry is breaking the codes of the spiral itself and is uniquely able to make this knowledge understandable and applicable. He roams freely between rich conceptual insights and the capacity to mobilize others to focus on practical problems in our complex and chaotic worlds.Evolutionary Leadershipmeshes insights from cutting-edge research while surfing the froth of transformational change. This is a must read for those who are struggling to identify and connect more of the dots." - Dr Don Beck
