This
is
a
book
for
21st
Century
leaders.
The
authors
are
offering
approaches
to
reduce
stress
and
to
promote
satisfaction
at
a
time
when
this
seems
impossible
for
most
people
struggling
to
make
sense
of
the
workplace
and
its
demands:
76%
of
managers
want
to
spend
more
time
with
their
families
50%
say
they
feel
too
mentally
and
physically
exhausted
to
do
anything
but
work
or
sleep
30%
say
their
lives
are
out
of
control
one
in
five
say
they
are
too
stressed
to
enjoy
their
lives
at
all
Many
of
the
leadership
skills
(such
as
emotional
intelligence,
weak
signal
management,
mental
agility)
that
are
key
to
success
in
today's
corporate
world
are
not
taught
in
business
schools,
are
rarely
discussed
by
business
academics,
nor
are
they
recognised
within
corporations
as
they
recruit,
promote
and
train
their
staff.
Business
conversation
is
all
about
the
war
for
talent
-
and
yet
the
solutions
presented
are
all
"outside-in"
(i.e.
what
the
corporation
needs
to
do
to
ensure
people
stay,
to
"make"
their
values
align,
to
retain
them)
rather
than
"inside-out"
(i.e.
alignment
of
individual's
sense
of
purpose
with
how
they
spend
their
time,
the
fit
of
their
skills
to
the
demands
of
their
job,
and
so
on).
Alpha
Leadership
seeks
to
redress
these
imbalances.
The
book
is
constructed
around
a
new
and
simple
model
of
leadership.
The
authors
call
this,
'Alpha
leadership',
which
consists
of
three
main
axes:
Anticipate,
Align
and
Act.
They
have
derived
this
model
from
their
extensive
experience
of
leadership
development
in
the
US
and
Europe,
during
a
period
of
rapid
adaptation
to
the
digital
economy.
The
authors
argument
is
that
traditional
approaches
to
leadership,
leadership
as
it
is
taught
in
the
business
schools
and
the
criteria
assigned
to
it
by
corporate
promotion
and
appraisal
systems,
focus
exclusively
on
'action',
and
take
little
or
no
account
of
the
crucial
importance
of
anticipation
and
alignment.
This
is
of
increased
concern
since
the
skills
most
likely
to
generate
success
for
leaders
