Condition remarks:
Hardcover - dust jacket Secondhand book: generally 'Very Good' to 'Excellent'. These are books which may have some slight wear and tear or sun fading on the edges. There may be an inscription at the front.

In a corporate world addicted to the comfort of familiar routines and safe, incremental thinking, How to Lead a Quest is a radical call to arms for executives who dare to venture beyond the boundaries of the known. Dr Jason Fox argues that true leadership demands the courage to pioneer — to question entrenched assumptions, challenge outdated defaults, and carve new paths through complexity and uncertainty. With the wit of a seasoned provocateur and the rigour of a strategic thinker, Fox presents a practical yet deeply philosophical handbook for those unwilling to settle for the merely adequate. Drawing on behavioural science, philosophy, and a healthy irreverence for corporate orthodoxy, Fox illustrates how pioneering leaders can cultivate the curiosity and cognitive flexibility needed to thrive in an age of relentless disruption. The book is rich with frameworks, thought experiments, and sharp insights that reward the reader who is genuinely committed to meaningful progress rather than the illusion of it. For any executive who suspects that the map they are following may no longer reflect the territory — this is the guide they have been waiting for.
