[Flaptekst]: Changing times call for new forms of leadership. The world has changed tremendously over the last fifty years, and the context of organizations has become more and more complex. Companies are looking for new ways to organize themselves in open, fluid structures, like networks and swarms, interacting with their environments. This also affects leadership and governance, in which many structures and habits originate from the old, industrial era. Most of us recognize that the classic image of a leader no longer suffices and that a new approach is needed to deal with the complexity of the modern world. But what does that look like? What are the vital leadership skills and how can you describe the differences from our classical view of leadership? What does that mean for educating the leaders of the future? Our research distinguishes six behavioral dimensions on which the transition to future leadership takes place. This results in six journeys, from classical leadership qualities to qualities for complexity. This picture book shows these journeys in an imaginative way. You can join Birdy, our little hero, on its trip from the past to the future. You can gain deeper insights into the real meaning for the behavior and skills involved. You can use the QR-codes to find scientific knowledge, practical tools and inspiration from music and movies. You can even test and develop yourself on your leadership qualities with the mixing console. Together, lets face the future!
