Developed by Agnieszka Rzepka, the Chameleon Paradigm is the culmination of twenty years of global research which identifies critical factors essential for organizational success in a volatile marketplace. The Paradigm provides a roadmap for organizations, addressing key elements necessary for thriving in a 5.0 reality. With market trends pushing companies towards sustainable, human-centric industries, the book argues that organizations should function as living organisms, where one failing component can disrupt the whole system.

Rzepka’s framework combines nine interdependent elements—leadership, innovation, relationships, culture, agility, capital, competence, knowledge, and strategy. The Chameleon Paradigm emphasizes the evolution in management models, shifting societal consciousness and new workforce dynamics. The book analyzes companies that successfully navigated the pandemic’s challenges, offering a model for resilient and innovative organizations. The book highlights discrepancies between recommended and actual practices in contemporary business and draws a conclusion that effective 21st-century leadership requires agility, proactive behavior, and a growth-focused approach. The accompanying verification tool allows organizations to assess their alignment with the paradigm and identify areas for improvement.

The monograph offers key management models and practical recommendations that can be implemented by managers and SMEs and will be of interest to researchers, academics, professionals, and students in the fields of organizational studies, leadership, management and innovation. By applying Rzepka’s model, managers can design, build, and operate innovative and resilient local and global organizations.
