Leadershift is about adapting and changing traditional models of leadership in response to the influence of mass collaboration, a form of collective action involving large numbers of people working independently on a single project – Wikipedia, for example.  As traditional models of collaboration are radically altered, those in leadership roles need to understand their place in this new hierarchy and how to respond.  Mass collaboration requires a form of leadership that is prepared to let go of the experience, expertise and control it holds precious and be able to see mass participation as an opportunity rather than a threat.

 

Emmanuel Gobillot describes how to adapt traditional leadership roles, and presents the tools necessary to succeed in this new age.  His model allows leaders to successfully engage with these communities, recognize and develop talent, and win customer loyalty.

 

Each chapter concludes with a “30 second recap” that summarizes key ideas.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Future is Now
Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2010
Verified Purchase
Emmanuel Gobillot's timely book takes us on a journey into the future of leadership. One of the first surprises we encounter on this journey is that, given the sudden increase in the pace of change brought about by the rapid spread of digital technology and its incredible capacity for mass collaboration, it turns out that the future is now. "Leadershift" makes the case for how the "new now" is rendering our traditional notions of experience, knowledge, effort, and power completely irrelevant. The new age of mass collaboration follows a radically different set of rules that completely redefines the fundamental roles and responsibilities of leaders. If you want to learn the secrets for leading in this "new now," Gobillot's entertaining stories and compelling insights will show you how to take advantage of the new efficiencies of mass collaboration to successfully navigate businesses through the turbulent waters of our unprecedented times.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does leadership need to SHIFT?
Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2010
Verified Purchase
Emmanuel Gobillot thinks so (and I happen to agree). Increasing pace of change, the age of mass collaboration, the age of particpation, the rising millenials, and the wiki-economy will (and are) having profound changes on how business is conducted. This book gives you the roadmap to start figuring out the "shifts" you need to make.

The book ooutlines the four shifts that will get you thinking : Simplicity, Narrative, Tasks, and Love. Go buy this book now!

4.0 out of 5 stars Thoughtful report on the changing requirements of leadership
Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2009
Emmanuel Gobillot, a senior leadership consultant, is an author for thoughtful readers. His books are smart, subtle and nuanced. He insists that you look at established truths in new ways. In some cases, Gobillot demolishes old verities and substitutes new realities, as you will see in his examination of leadership. He shows why the old leadership paradigm, based on "experience, expertise and control," is defunct. According to Gobillot, modern leaders must change their mindsets if they wish to stay relevant. getAbstract recommends his provocative book to executives and managers who want their organizations to succeed in the new collaborative work environment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Leadership Must Read
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2021
Verified Purchase
I read this book after finding myself enthralled by Emmanuel Gobillot’s later book, “Follow the Leader.” Once again, I have found myself wanting more. Gobillot really speaks my language, and describes the kind of leader I am working to be.

Though I gave this book five stars, I wrestled with this. Why? There is one thing about Gobillot’s books that may make them less likely to be widely read. They are not easy reads. His writing is at a much more advanced level than most leadership books. I found myself needing to read many sections twice, and I need to read the book again, something I rarely do, but something I also did with “Follow the Leader.” This isn’t a knock on the quality of the book - far from it. In fact, I challenge you to not let this scare you off, and take the time to read and understand what he’s writing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Leadership 2.0 for the WoW (Online) era
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 4, 2011
Verified Purchase
As I read this book I felt as if my leadership software was being updated, no longer would just improving my current leadership skills cut it in an ever changing world. The ideas presented challenged my notion of leadership, inspired me about just what can be achieved and gave concrete examples of application in the real world. As you might expect of an information age author, the way the book is structured from the initial 'cheat sheet' to the 30 second recap made the ideas so much more accessible and easy to return to. There are numerous references throughout to support the facts included and claims made, if that is important to you. In many ways these ideas answered the frustration I often feel when work fails to keep pace with the way we live. Although I would consider myself of the social networking and MMO era this book took the online concepts into leadership in a new direction. Emmanuel's humour also enhances the stories, I won't spoil it here but I particularly enjoyed the 'Google knows everything' moment. 5/5 for me and could only be improved as an audio book read by the author who is also, in my opinion, an engaging and authentic presenter.
