Contents:

1. Limits of hierarchy in a faster-moving world -- 2. Seizing opportunities with a dual operating system -- 3. The stakes: a cautionary tale -- 4. Leadership and evolution -- 5. The five principles and eight accelerators in action -- 6. Relentlessly developing and role modeling urgency -- 7. The big opportunity -- 8. Getting started: Q&A -- 9. The (inevitable) future of strategy.

Summary: It's a familiar scene in organizations today: a new competitive threat or a big opportunity emerges. You quickly create a strategic initiative in response and appoint your best people to make change happen. And it does--but not fast enough. Or effectively enough. Real value gets lost and, ultimately, things drift back to the default status. Why is this scenario so frequently repeated in industries and organizations across the world?
