Too often companies wait until impending disruption is clear, then scramble to respond with sweeping, top-down transformations. But the real threat today isn't disruption. It's drift: the quiet erosion of clarity, purpose, and performance that happens when leaders lose their edge without even realizing it. As an antidote to expensive, long, and often unsuccessful overhauls, leaders should instead choose to hone. Like a chef maintaining a knife, honing is the leadership practice of consistently making small adjustments to ensure an organization retains its competitive edge. The third in a trilogy of business strategy books written by renowned strategists and two-time Thinkers50-nominated authors Geoff Tuff and Steven Goldbach, Hone: How Purposeful Leaders Defy Drift explains why and how to optimally hone your organization's execution of its strategy. Taking a cue from four celebrated artisans, this book shows readers how to choose and constantly work the set of management systems that promote an organization's desired outcomes--and uninstall them when they are past their prime. Engaging, pragmatic, and inspiring, Hone earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of all professionals seeking to bring new sources of advantage to their organizations in a time of accelerating uncertainty and exponential change.
