"An actionable methodology for any team to thrive during the decade of exponential change ahead."-Peter H. Diamandis, founder of XPRIZE and Singularity University, bestselling co-author ofAbundance, Bold,andThe Future Is Faster Than You Think
In times ofstress, we have a choice: we can retreat further into our isolated silos, or we can commit to "going higher together."
When external pressures are mounting, and employees are working from far-flung locations across the globe,says bestselling author Keith Ferrazzi, we can no longer afford to waste time navigating the complex chains of command or bureaucratic bottlenecks present in most companies. But when wechoose the bold new methodology of co-elevation as our operating model, we unlock the potential to boost productivity, deepen commitment and engagement, and create a level of trust, mutual accountability, and purpose that exceeds what could have been accomplished under the status quo.
And you don't need any formal authority to do it. You simply have to marshal a commitment to a shared mission and care about the success and development of others as much as you care about your own. Regardless of your title, position, or where or how you work, the ability to lead without authority is an essential workplace competency.
Here,Ferrazzi draws on over a decade of research and over thirty years helping CEOs and senior leaders drive innovation and build high-performing teams to show how we can allturn ourcolleagues and partners into teammates andtruly reboot the way we work together.
