520 "Although the information age offers individuals from all
walks of life the power to make their voices heard, we
often end up with a cacophony of competing voices rather
than a conversation. With so many people empowered to join
the decision-making process, the number and diversity of
stakeholders in governance situations poses a special
challenge: how do you steer when so many hands are on the
wheel? Catalytic Governance offers a proven approach to
managing this challenge, built on the insight that
effective leadership and governance depends less on
traditional top-down approaches and more on creating
shared meanings and frameworks. Drawing on their
experiences managing transformational change in a complex,
multi-stakeholder environment on issues ranging from
finance to climate change, health, and the digital
revolution, Patricia Meredith, Steven A. Rosell, and Ged
R. Davis demonstrate how to use dialogue to engage
stakeholders, explore alternative perspectives, develop
shared mental maps and a vision of the future, and co-
create strategies and initiatives to realize that future.
While elements of this approach will be familiar, this is
the first time they have been combined into a coherent
model and tested together in practice. The book describes
in detail how this was done in the process of transforming
the Canadian payments system. The catalytic approach to
governance is a powerful tool for leaders in the public
and private sectors looking to lead and govern more
effectively."--|cProvided by publisher
