{"product_id":"games-without-thrones-9783119145138","title":"Games Without Thrones","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn Games Without Thrones, entrepreneurship professor David Lingelbach and oligarch researcher Valentina Rodríguez Guerra show how we can all learn from oligarchs, even if we don’t like them. These masters of uncertainty have found their moment again in the early 21st century, when several existential threats have overturned our ability to predict the future. Paradoxically, oligarchs hold the intellectual keys that will enable the rest of us to exploit the coming storms. This book describes these keys as eight\u003cbr\u003eleadership lessons that can become a new playbook, enabling all of us to play and win the new\u003cbr\u003egames without thrones.\u003cbr\u003eThis book makes three major points:\u003cbr\u003e• Oligarchs are at the center of our worlds now, shaping the global economy in which we all\u003cbr\u003ework and the politics that help determine our life choices. Understanding their centrality is\u003cbr\u003ekey to understanding how the world works.\u003cbr\u003e• Oligarchs provide us with eight lessons to enable us to be more effective leaders. The first\u003cbr\u003ethree lessons comprise their distinctive Weltanschauung or worldview. They see the world\u003cbr\u003every differently than the rest of us.\u003cbr\u003e• Oligarchs offer us five specific strategies—four of which were first elaborated in our The\u003cbr\u003eOligarchs’ Grip and developed further in our forthcoming The Oligarchs of the Americas—to\u003cbr\u003elead during times of crisis and turbulence. Those times are likely to dominate our\u003cbr\u003eprofessional lives, no matter where we live.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Lingelbach","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48266517938427,"sku":"9783119145138","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_879e6b44-fc0e-4c4d-903d-fab51e83ee56.jpg?v=1779052939","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/games-without-thrones-9783119145138","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
