I am totally agains Naomi Klein... She is using those data that are in favour of her view and neglecting all the others... (eg. from FT)

Feb 15 2011: I have too many good books to suggest, so I will start with:
Beyond Authority - Leadership in a Changing World by Julia Middleton

It is about a new approach of leadership: one that can cope in unfamiliar territory, where authority has to be earned, that will take leaders beyond the closed world of their own organisations and make them effective in the outside world too.

Feb 15 2011: I really like your suggestions!

If you like visualisation and management you will love "The Business World Atlas: Navigation for Innovative Organisations" by Stuart Crainer and Des Dearlove.

This book is ot like any other business books. After all how could you make a jurney through such a complex landscape without a map? Here is business portrayed not just in text, but in maps. It is very nice to see on a map the connection between the Boston Matrix Tidal Zone, the Porter Generic Strategy Counter-Intelligence Unit and eg. the Art of War City.
