How Real People Solve Hard Problems

The social challenges facing us in the 2020's are radically different than those we faced even one generation ago. Meet the new leaders who are moving us forward and learn how to apply their same effectiveness, qualities, and attributes to you own leadership. The kinds of leadership it has always taken to build American communities and companies are still relevant, but they are not sufficient to define the level and quality of leadership it will take to rebuild an America that has become too uneven and siloed over the last 20 years. Turn to Taking Charge of Change to learn real life success stories of change leaders that will inspire and point the way to real life impact. Featured leaders include Peter Drucker Award winner Rosanne Haggerty, whose goal is not to reduce but to put an end to chronic homelessness; Father Greg Boyle, whose organization, Homeboy Industries, has made a dramatic impact on reducing gang violence in Los Angeles; and board-certified psychiatrist and behavioral neurologist Justin Coffey's, whose work on depression has reduced suicide rates in a way that has been validated scientifically. Readers will: Learn the common elements change leaders utilize to make a remarkable impact on some or our most complex problems. Go from thinking about making an impact to a path of action where you are the right kind of leader for the future who is directly affecting people's lives. Gain new perspective on what is possible through the inspiration of the change leaders featured in this groundbreaking book. Ultimately, Paul Shoemaker, Founding President of Social Venture Partners International--a global network of thousands of social innovators, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and business and community leaders--shows leaders how change is happening and profiles the leaders behind it so that they have a model to follow.
