Harvard Business Review: A New Way to Think

AmCham Denmark, in partnership with DAWN, invite you to an event with Harvard Business Review Author & Management thought leader Roger L. Martin, to discuss his book “A New Way to Think” – Your Guide to Superior Management Effectiveness.

We are in the midst of a great reboot, with business leaders navigating the uncertainty of a world forever changed by the pandemic. In a new book, Roger L. Martin – one of the greatest business thinkers of our time – argues that in order to solve their most pressing challenges, leaders must first rethink their models.

Models – frameworks or ways of thinking – guide a leader’s strategy and activities. Over the last 40 years as a trusted adviser to CEOs of some of the world’s top companies, Martin has seen the dominant models of management fail leaders time and again. In his new book, A New Way to Think: Your Guide to Superior Management Effectiveness (Harvard Business Review Press; May 3, 2022), he urges leaders to abandon the old ways of thinking, and instead try new models in every domain of management – from competition and customers to strategy, data, culture, talent, M&A and everything in between.

Roger was named the world’s #1 management thinker by Thinkers50. Join us to hear management tips from one of the world’s #1 management thinkers by Thinkers50 – and a trusted strategy advisor to the CEOs of companies worldwide including Procter & Gamble, Lego and Ford.
