The Power of ParadoxHarness the Energy of Competing Ideas to Uncover Radically Innovative Solutions

Deborah Schroeder-Saulnier

Should your company pursue global expansion or mine local opportunities?

Take risks to grow dramatically or protect your current stability?

Seek to maximize sales or the bottom line?

We’re so often faced with apparent paradoxes: continuity and change,conservatism and progressiveness, predictability and chaos. In business,inherent tensions are mistakenly viewed as problems to be resolved oncethe “correct” answer is found. But when we consider only one direction—either A or B—we only see part of the picture. The strongest and mostinnovative solutions are frequently realized not through either/or decision-making, but by pursuing two contrasting options at the same time.

Taking readers through the same steps she’s used to help Fortune 100companies such as Wells Fargo, Dunkin Donuts, and Boeing, DeborahSchroeder-Saulnier reveals a dynamic critical-thinking process anyone canuse to define the strategic tensions within his or her organization, identifythe potential of seemingly conflicting options, and develop action steps tomaximize the benefits of each.

Complete with examples of companies that achieved a competitive advantage with this breakthrough strategy, The Power of Paradox willhelp you face chronic challenges with confidence and uncover unexpectedand infinitely better solutions.
