What Matters Now

What Matters Now is not merely an exploration of leadership, teams, or motivation; it’s a manifesto for creating organizations that excel in an era marked by rapid change, mounting uncertainty, and fierce competition. Gary Hamel challenges conventional management wisdom and invites leaders to rethink the very foundations of capitalism, organizational dynamics, and work itself. This impassioned call to action goes far beyond incremental improvements, urging decision-makers to adopt groundbreaking approaches that leverage the power of purpose and vision. In a landscape where the unexpected has become standard, Hamel identifies five pivotal drivers - values, innovation, adaptability, passion, and ideology - that determine whether an organization will thrive or falter. With clarity and urgency, What Matters Now provides a succinct, transformative agenda designed to help leaders shift from defensive postures to bold offensives, overcome bureaucracy, and inspire extraordinary contributions. This work invites you to reimagine your business, rethink your strategies, and lead with renewed conviction into a future defined by limitless possibilities and ever-evolving challenges.
