The authors cite competition and external expectations as two of the key factors driving this evolution, and offer insight into the types of activities leaders at these firms must carry out effectively in order to be successful. For consultants working with these firms, this book can offer some new strategies when it comes to creating the right culture and alignment in terms of talent, market and organizational challenges. So, if the leaders you're working with aren't born, reading this book may
help them get made.
