Competing in the New World of Work:
How Radical Adaptability Separates the Best from the Rest
The pandemic forced your organization to shed antiquated systems, processes, and procedures and to make a bold leap into an even more digitally enabled, technology-driven future. But there isn't yet a shared base of knowledge of what's worked, what hasn't, and what could work better as companies reinvent everything they do—or how they can emerge stronger and leap ahead farther coming out of the pandemic and beyond. Instead of going back to work, how do we go forward in the new world of work?
Geolab founder Kian Gohar, teamed up with New York Times #1 bestselling author Keith Ferrazzi, and Noel Weyrich, to offer a bold new vision for what the organization of the future looks like: digital, distributed, inclusive, resilient, and empathic.
Based on an ambitious Harvard-backed global research initiative involving thousands of executives, innovators, and change-makers who leveraged the crisis afforded by the pandemic to redefine their strategies, business models, organizational systems, and even their cultures, this book documents the workplace innovations that emerged during the pandemic and shows leaders how to shape their organizations and practices to remain competitive in a new, post-pandemic context.
Translated into 6 languages, #2 on the Wall Street Journal bestseller list, a USA Today bestselling book, and hailed by Malcolm Gladwell and Daniel Pink’s Next Big Idea Club and Time/Charter as one of the top leadership books of the year, Competing in the New World of Work is a must-have guidebook for the future of work for any team leader.
Just a Few Things You’ll Discover:
•Which new management practices are critical to success in the post-pandemic era?
•How are major leaders reshaping their organizations for a different, post-Covid world?

Competing in the New World of Work offers leaders the inspiration and the roadmap to catapult their organizations forward, make up for lost time, embrace new realities, and win new frontiers.
