A chapter in Radical Decision Making: Leading Strategic Change in Complex Organizations, 2015, pp 1-11 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Hruška offers an original insight into the genesis and implementation of radical change. The germ of the book is the notion that we do not know how leaders devise ideas which, at the time they are conceived, most people find crazy and how they eventually make others believe in them. The book goes against the conventional view on the issues of leadership and change management. Hruška avoids using the “cook book” approach to business problem solving by focusing on the two-way effect of how individuals cope and interact in social systems. The focus on the ongoing adaptation and adjustment that an individual goes through provides a more pragmatic and more realistic approach to organizational life than much of the mainstream literature.
