Regenerative Leadership: A New Approach That Values Life
There is no doubt. We are living in a time marked by great upheaval and volatility. Leaders – both political and business – are being forced to cope with rising challenges: resource scarcity; high levels of stress in the work place; disruptive innovations; social inequality; constant competition for top talent; rapid digitization and globalization; mass migrations; fragile supply chains; mounting social tensions; political extremism; and much more.
On top of all this, the climate of our planet is breaking down and we are facing what scientists have called the sixth mass extinction.
Our production systems are based on a linear, take-make-waste approach. Our financial systems based on short-term profit maximization that ignore life and debase human integrity. Our organizational systems are dominated by hyper-competition, power-and-control hierarchies, and rising stress.
We need a new approach that values life. A new leadership logic where organisations flourish, ecosystems thrive and people feel alive. This is what Regenerative Leadership is all about. This book is written by leadership and sustainability specialists Giles Hutchins and Laura Storm, and has been referred to as the ‘must-read book of the year’.
“This book invites leaders to catalyze the necessary regeneration to not just catch up, but to lead the world into the 21st century.”
CHRISTIANA FIGUERES, EXECUTIVE SECRETARY UNFCCC 2010-2016

This book weaves a new leadership framework with inspiration from pioneering thinking within biomimicry, circular economy, adult developmental psychology, anthropology, biophilia, sociology, complexity theory and next-stage leadership development. It connects the dots between these fields through a powerful DNA model that enables leadership to become regenerative, building thriving, prosperous, flourishing organizations amid these transformational times.
Regenerative organizations will be tomorrow’s success stories. Those that hold-on to yesterday’s logic will become yesterday’s news. It’s simple: adapt or die.
“This book is full of wisdom and determination! It will inspire leaders to succeed in the 21st Century.”
TIM FLANNERY, SCIENTIST
