confusion in the business world in the next decade than in any decade in history. And the
current pace of change will only accelerate.”
Steve Case

Uncertainty: We don’t know when things will get back
to normal.
Ambiguity: We no longer know what “normal”
means.

1. Leaders Cede Control.
![Page 7: Leading In Totally Screwed Up Times: 35 in 35 Tom Peters/07 November 2001](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649ef35503460f94c05394/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
“I don’t know.”
![Page 8: Leading In Totally Screwed Up Times: 35 in 35 Tom Peters/07 November 2001](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649ef35503460f94c05394/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
2. Leadership Is a …
Mutual Discovery Process.
![Page 9: Leading In Totally Screwed Up Times: 35 in 35 Tom Peters/07 November 2001](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649ef35503460f94c05394/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Leaders Do Not “Transform People”!
Instead leaders-mentors-teachers (1) provide a context which is marked by (2) access to a
luxuriant portfolio of meaningful opportunities (projects) which (3) allow people to fully express
their innate curiosity and (4) engage in a vigorous discovery voyage by which those people (5) go to-create places they (and their mentors-teachers-leaders) had never dreamed
existed. And then the leaders-mentors-teachers (6) applaud like hell, stage “photo-ops,” and ring the church bells 100 times to commemorate the
bravery of their “followers’ ” explorations!

“Diversity defines the health and wealth of nations in a new century.
Mighty is the mongrel. … The hybrid is hip. The impure, the mélange, the adulterated, the
blemished, the rough, the black-and-blue, the mix-and-match – these people are inheriting
the earth. Mixing is the new norm. Mixing trumps isolation. It spawns creativity,
nourishes the human spirit, spurs economic growth
and empowers nations.”

“Good management was the most powerful reason [leading firms] failed to
stay atop their industries. Precisely because these firms listened to their customers, invested aggressively in technologies that would
provide their customers more and better products of the sort they wanted, and because
they carefully studied market trends and systematically allocated investment capital to
innovations that promised the best returns, they lost their positions of leadership.”
Clayton Christensen, The Innovator’s Dilemma
