Red, White and Radical e-bog

Red, White and Radical explores how and why America has become so conservative since World War II. In the process, it offers lessons that professional leaders, regardless of their political stance, should heed if they want their organisational change plans to succeed. Over the past 70 years, a motley crew of suburban activists, libertarian businessmen and political opportunists have radically changed America and its national values. The rise of American conservatism is the greatest modern example of cultural change in the Western world. How did they do it - and what can we learn from this? Red, White and Radical is a manual for organisational change. It tells nine stories from American cultural, political and business history that illuminate how conservatives have pioneered change. From these stories, it extracts a change management lesson for professional leaders and explains how to apply that lesson in the workplace.These nine lessons are organised into a clear change framework:understanding and motivating peoplecommunicating with emotion and authenticitybuilding teams and networks that can deliver lasting change.Along the way you'll also learn:how Marlboro became the world's biggest cigarette brandwhy conservatives love Ronald Reagan but despise Richard Nixonthe origins of the social media echo chamberhow Silicon Valley learned to lobbythe secrets of Donald Trump's populist X Factor.
