Reviews

[Dustin Dye]

Complexity and the Nexus of Leadership offers a thorough discussion on applying complexity theory to management practice. The book can be a bit dense at parts, but it is worth taking bit-by-bit and trying to understand. I particularly found the chapters on Positive Deviance and network theory insightful.

[Ali Sohani]
