Open Leadership – Charlene Li

Oct. 7, 2010 – Subtitled: How Social Technology Can Transform the Way You Lead. It took me longer than usual to get through this book. It is dense with information – all of it excellent. Real world case studies that delve into companies like Cisco, Ford, Dell, Best Buy, Marriott and the US State Dept. Developing a strong social media strategy is just one facet of a leadership style that has to foster collaboration, transparency, innovation and empowerment at every level of an organization. Those that are doing well with it early are creating a road map for everyone else. Charlene Li does a great job of explaining process evolution.
