About this listen

Have a problem with your organization's strategy in an era of accelerating, exponential change? Modern business orthodoxy has an easy answer: transform it. Hone: How Purposeful Leaders Defy Drift argues this thinking is itself in need of an overhaul. Rather than devote time to expensive, long, and often unsuccessful transformations, leaders should instead focus on holistically designing and honing the management systems that are the nervous systems of their businesses.

The third in a trilogy of business strategy books written by renowned strategists and two-time Thinkers50-nominated authors Steven Goldbach and Geoff Tuff, this book explains why and how to optimally hone your organization's execution of its strategy, with highlights including:

  • The importance of recognizing and taking action to defy the drift that often afflicts organizations undergoing massive transformation
  • Guidelines on how to design and continually reshape effective management systems to influence organizational and individual behaviors
  • Reframing the job of CEOs to be Chief System Designers for their organizations
  • Reflections on how honing principles within organizations can be used on broader societal challenges
