Leaders as Architects of Change provides new approaches, frames and tools for leaders and their teams to design, drive, and support cultures of workplace inquiry which create collective capacity and adaptivity, and which ground and connect people in times of change.Written by scholar-practitioners, alongside global business leaders, the book explores how organizations can thrive in a brittle, anxious, nonlinear, and incomprehensible (BANI) world. Drawing on evidence-based research and real-world experience, the contributors present practical frameworks for antifragility, emotional intelligence, adaptive culture, and collaborative leadership. Through chapters on AI-driven disruption, organizational resilience, dissent by design, and trust in virtual teams, the book reveals how leaders can design adaptive systems that bend without breaking, cultivate psychological safety, and unlock human flourishing. Rather than offering prescriptive fixes, it provides tools to architect conditions for resilience, innovation, and belonging.The book will resonate with executives, academics, consultants, and students of leadership who seek actionable strategies to navigate volatility. Readers will gain both insight and courage to reimagine organizations not as machines of control but as living systems of connection, adaptability, and purpose.
