Long description:

Whilst there is a growing body of frameworks and tools to help leaders navigate the new convergence of disruptive tech (for example, AI, nano-technologies, neuroscience), there is little to help them build the worldview and mindset required to solve the myriad of problems they'll have never considered before.

Non-Linear cuts to the heart of these challenges by describing the new type of worldview and mindset leaders will need to build to thrive in the new era of 10x growth expectation and hyper change driven by exponential technologies and the global start-up community. Conventional organisations have built their organisations relatively slowly over decades and enjoyed a lengthy period of time to exploit their business model. 75% of transformation efforts amongst the global top 1000 companies over the past decade have failed largely because these organisations have been unable to make the deeper shifts in mindset and culture required.

Having had a ringside seat, witnessing and leading change efforts of companies ranging from Coca-Cola, Sony, Goldman Sachs, Warner, Halma and eBay, Jean Gomes has built a unique understanding of how the mindset of organisations can block or enable growth and transformation efforts. The models and tools have been developed over a decade and have consistently won DPA Consulting high profile work. The book includes case studies, with clients such as Warner, Sony, IMI, Halma, and Klarna.
