Reviews for Spark Change: 25 Tools for Strategic Thinking in For-Purpose Organisations

"""In a world where bold thinking shapes our destiny, Spark Change: 25 Tools for Strategic Thinking in For-Purpose Organisations stands out as an indispensable guide. George's insights transcend the ordinary, urging us to elevate our decision-making process. After all, it's these decisions that separate the merely good from the truly great. As a purpose-led executive, I found George's book to be a compass in uncharted waters. It not only challenged my biases but also provided practical strategies to navigate the complex landscape of organisational challenges and opportunities. From boardrooms to everyday choices, Spark Change empowers us to think beyond the obvious, igniting a transformative journey. If you're ready to embrace bigger ideas and drive meaningful change, this book is your compass. Let it spark the fire within you."" Greg Muller, Chair & Co-Founder, The United Project Foundation ""I think this is a great resource for new and establishing leaders in any organisation. It is also important reading for people already in leadership. I've seen George's work in action and the practical insights, resources and training suggested in this book are a really generous synthesis of so much of his experience. In any project I've worked on with him he has supported his clients to extend their thinking. That approach is reflected in this book, which focuses our attention on what we should be thinking when we're doing the strategic thinking-it's a fabulous tool for reminding you how to get to a good outcome."" Tom Dalton, Chief Executive Officer, Neami National ""In Spark Change, George Liacos masterfully distils decades of unparalleled experience at the forefront of for-purpose leadership and strategy. It offers a series of powerful, practical reflections and strategies for those committed to social impact. George's deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing for-purpose organisations today is evident on every page, making this book an invaluable toolkit for leaders and teams eager to refine their decision-making and amplify their impact. A must-read for the changemaker in all of us."" Ian Patterson, Chief Executive Officer, HumanIT"
