Why can some organizations innovate repeatedly while most struggle? Many believe that attracting exceptional talent, making strategic investments, or breaking down silos are the keys to innovation. While these factors can help, the true secret lies in a specific type of leadership that fosters sustained innovation. Collective Genius reveals this essential leadership approach. Renowned scholar Linda Hill, along with Greg Brandeau, Emily Truelove, and Kent Lineback, identifies a common misconception among leaders: that a generally effective leader will also excel in leading innovation. In reality, innovation requires a unique leadership style that taps into the “collective genius” of the organization’s members. Through compelling stories from leaders at companies like Volkswagen, Google, eBay, and Pfizer, as well as various nonprofits and government agencies, the authors illustrate that successful innovation leaders do not merely impose their vision. Instead, they cultivate a culture that encourages ongoing innovation, creating an environment where individuals are empowered to engage in the challenging work of problem-solving. This book not only inspires but also provides practical guidance for embedding innovation into your organization’s core.

In this book, the authors show you how to measure yourself against what's required. At the end, you will clearly understand your strengths, where you need to make progress, and how to move forward. Whether you're new or experienced, this book is your guide to becoming the great boss you need to be -- for your firm, your people, and yourself.

New managers must learn how to lead others rather than do the work themselves, to win trust and respect, to motivate, and to strike the right balance between delegation and control. It is a transition many fail to make. This book traces the experiences of nineteen new managers over the course of their first year in a managerial capacity. Reveals the complexity of the transition and analyzes the expectations of the managers, their subordinates, and their superiors. New managers describe how they reframed their understanding of their roles and responsibilities, how they learned to build effective work relationships, how and when they used individual and organizational resources, and how they learned to cope with the inevitable stresses of the transformation. They describe what it was like to take on a new identity. Two themes emerge: first the transition from individual contributor to manager is a profound psychological adjustment--a transformation; second, the process of becoming a manager is primarily one of learning from experience. Through trial and error, observation and interpretation, the new managers learned what it took to become effective business leaders.
