Some leadership skills are enduring.  But to be successful in the future, leaders also need an emerging set of skills uniquely suited to dealing with the challenges of the threshold decade we are entering.  Today’s businesses and organizations are operating in a world characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity.  Though they already seemed stressed to the breaking point, Johansen reminds us that we are also more connected than ever before in our history, but we must fully realize the benefits of that connectivity. In the next decade, leaders will not just see the future—they will make it!  But they will not be able to do it alone.
