<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>The #1 English-language bestseller in China--the book that is shaping China's planning and policy for the future.</b> <p/>A gray rhino is a highly probable, high impact yet neglected threat: kin to both the elephant in the room and the improbable and unforeseeable black swan. Gray rhinos are not random surprises, but occur after a series of warnings and visible evidence. The bursting of the housing bubble in 2008, the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and other natural disasters, the new digital technologies that upended the media world, the fall of the Soviet Union...all were evident well in advance. <p/>Why do leaders and decision makers keep failing to address obvious dangers before they spiral out of control? Drawing on her extensive background in policy formation and crisis management, as well as in-depth interviews with leaders from around the world, Michele Wucker shows in <i>The Gray Rhino </i>how to recognize and strategically counter looming high-impact threats. Filled with persuasive stories, real-world examples, and practical advice, <i>The Gray Rhino</i> is essential reading for managers, investors, planners, policy makers, and anyone who wants to understand how to profit by avoiding getting trampled.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Michele Wucker is the author of <i>Lockout: Why America Keeps Getting Immigration Wrong When Our Prosperity Depends on Getting It Right</i> and <i>Why the Cocks Fight: Dominicans, Haitians, and the Struggle for Hispaniola.</i> Wucker has been recognized as a 2009 Young Global Leader of the World Economic Forum and a 2007 Guggenheim Fellow.
