Learn what matters most in leading your team through change

When change is constant and accelerating, our success depends on embracing its potential for growth. Global executive Steve Vamos reveals how powerhouse tech companies like Xero, Microsoft, Apple and IBM thrive by enabling change, creativity and innovation. Inside, you'll find practical tools and a playbook that will help you manage disruption and successfully align your people and resources with your goals.

From industry challenges to the AI revolution, Through Shifts and Shocks shares a pathway that leaders and teams can follow to navigate change and perform better together. As a leader, you need to understand how to balance being (who you are as a leader) and doing (how you lead through words and actions). Through Shifts and Shocks shares crucial leadership must-dos, engaging stories and surprising insights gleaned from the author's experiences at the biggest tech organisations in the world.

Discover a framework that will help you and those you work with be better every day:

Develop the right mindset for change

Be clear about your priorities and drive alignment

Assess current performance, strategy and tactics with a diagnostic toolkit

Make hard choices and have difficult conversations

Create an environment of psychological safety that encourages your team to innovate and drive growth

When it comes to change, it is not enough to know why. You also need to know how. From real-world examples to practical exercises, this guidebook will show you how to make a vital difference in your team and organisation as you think, act and lead.

'A must-read, sharing inspired insights into what it takes to be a great leader of people and organisations, from one of the best' -David Thodey AO
