Leading successfully through change was the theme at the Centre for Army Leadership’s annual conference last week.

Gen Carter was interviewed on-the-record for our new book Thinking the Unthinkable: A New Imperative for Leadership in a Disruptive Age.

Along with other global leaders, he identified “maverick thinking” and risk-taking as key to transforming leadership. This resonated with the audience as you can see from this series of tweets.

@Leadersforward also picked up on the theme tweeting one of our presentation slides: Wacky = Wise; Maverick = Visionary; Bonkers = Bold.

They also shared some of the other key TtU themes from challenging conformity to thinking the ‘unpalatable’.
