Political correctness

Monica Sharma describes how we can source our inner capacities and wisdom to manifest change that embodies universal values such as dignity, compassion, fairness, and courage. Drawing on more than twenty years of work for the United Nations and elsewhere, she presents a radical new approach to transformational leadership, one that creates systems of change where everyone can engage-not just analysts and policy-makers. Demonstrating that we all can be architects of a new humanity, Monica demystifies policy-making, planning, and implementation so that everyone can play an informed and strategic part in eradicating the world's most intractable problems. Using real-life examples from around the world, she shows how our innate characteristics of universal compassion, equity impulse, and human capability can create new patterns that effectively address major challenges such as gross inequality, unbridled hate, conflicts based on social identity, and the never-enough mindset of greed. Written in a straightforward, accessible style, Radical Transformational Leadership outlines a path-breaking paradigm shift that is already generating equitable and sustainable results across the globe.

Reviews for Radical Transformational Leadership: Strategic Action for Change Agents

Monica Sharma embodies the mindful and compassionate change agent the world needs now. In Radical Transformational Leadership she offers us all a map for action, and a clarion call to become the change we want to see. --Daniel Goleman, author of, Emotional Intelligence Monica Sharma's voice, based on experience and conviction, strengthens the case that leadership can be shaped with equality, freedom, and justice, rooted in the transformational power of human compassion. --Aruna Roy, sociopolitical activist and recipient of 2000 Magsaysay Award The survival and future of humanity and civilization depends on the framework Monica Sharma outlines in Radical Transformational Leadership. It is my sincere hope that anyone who wants to participate in healing our wounded planet will read this book and follow its principles. --Deepak Chopra Anyone who doubts that the changes needed to lift our world beyond the chaos of today's deep problems and political chest-thumping needs look no further than this book. The 'new field' she describes as 'radical systems and cultural transformation' constitutes a kind of invisible renaissance emerging around the world of understanding the entwined inner and outer nature of genuine systemic change. --Peter Senge, MIT and Academy for System Change In this astonishing and deeply inspiring book, Monica Sharma invites us on a journey that is both life-changing and world-changing. Drawing on her rich experience and profound wisdom, she shows us how we can tap our inner and outer potential as leaders to help transform the world. I recommend it highly! --William Ury, coauthor of Getting to Yes and author of Getting to Yes with Yourself
