The global pandemic is perhapse the most undeniable example of how the problems we face grow bigger than we expect and move faster than we can respond. Epidemics are real threats in themselves, but they also embody how possibilities arise, grow exponentially, and multiply impact in a complex and interconnected world. In such a world, leadership must evolve beyond individual competence to collective positive capacity.</p> <p>As an emergency physician and later as a CEO of Colorado's largest trauma center, Larry McEvoy witnessed the overwhelming power of both biological epidemics and behavioral ones. As he observed the dynamics underlying the epidemics plaguing his patients and his organizations, he began to explore how biological and social contagions carry a constructive blueprint for a leadership system which delivers abundant results, wide learning, and deep vitality. If the questions of how we lead and organize today are more critical than ever before, epidemics are compelling models for creating a more functional, sustainable, and healthier world. <p><i>Epidemic Leadership: How to Lead Infectiously in the Era of Big Problems</i> is your invitation to think about leading with a new framework, one grounded in science and built upon simple, accessible concepts and techniques that anyone can put into action.
