The Phoenix Encounter Method by V. “Paddy” Padmanabhan, from INSEAD professors Ian C. Woodward, Sameer Hasija, and best-selling author Ram Charan was released today. It’s a timely call for a new leadership perspective amidst the faster pace of disruption today. The Phoenix Encounter empowers leaders and instils the confident Phoenix Attitude required to imagine burning your business to the ground and then resurrecting it from the ashes.
Essential to the Encounters are Phoenix Encounter Groups (PEGs) who play the roles of both attacking and defending the incumbent. They are carefully organised small groups with members that provide maximum diversity and experience… not just from within the incumbent’s organisation, but ideally from different industries and organizations. Yes, outsiders!
