The New Corporate Facts of Life

Rethink Your Business to Transform Today's Challenges into Tomorrow's Profits

Diana Rivenburgh's forthcoming book to be published by AMACOM in 2013

It takes extraordinary vision to see around the bend in an uncertain world where change happens at such breakneck speed. To obtain such vision, smart leaders first recognize seven powerful new corporate facts of life that are rendering the old rules of organizational life obsolete:

Disruptive Innovation: Discoveries emerge at the speed of imagination.

Economic Instability: Financial uncertainty threatens all.

Societal Upheaval: Worldwide activism erupts and goes viral

Stakeholder Influence: People vote with their wallets and call for change.

Environmental Degradation: Demand outstrips supply.

Globalization: Businesses reach globally yet connect locally.

Population Growth: More people consume more stuff.

In The New Corporate Facts of Life, transformational change consultant Diana Rivenburgh shows business leaders how to seize and profit from the opportunities born every day in this new era of catalytic change. This book goes beyond presenting the case for embracing the new corporate facts of life by arming readers with practical models and tools. It shows readers exactly how they can redefine key aspects of their organizations in just the right way: perspectives, vision, strategy, culture, leadership, engagement, alignment and market domination.
