Publisher's Synopsis
In this thought-provoking book, the author examines the fascinating story of how one of the greatest philosophers of all time, Nietzsche, brought down a value system in 1884, and what we can learn from it to live up to the buzzword "disruptive". Through the eyes of Nietzsche's Zarathustra, a prominent figure in philosophical scholarship, readers are taken on a journey to discover how the requirements for a great leader have changed over the last 140 years. Drawing on scientific studies, personal experiences, and other management literature, the book offers practical insights on how anyone can become a great leader, regardless of their background, gender, or other characteristics, if they have a philosophy of work.
With a mix of long-forgotten virtues, disruptive approaches, and a glimpse into the future of work, this book challenges traditional management concepts and offers a fresh perspective on what it means to be a great leader. The author cleverly translates Nietzsche's speeches into today's world of management culture, highlighting the significant influence that his teachings have on much of the literature today.
Part 1 and 2 of Nietzsche's masterpiece are covered in this book, taking readers on a rocky road to understanding what it takes to become a truly great leader. With entertaining and at times shocking examples drawn from the author's career, this book is a must-read for anyone who wants to embrace disruptive thinking and leadership in the modern age.
