Peer•no•va•tion (pir-n-v-shn) combines the words peer (people of equal standing) and innovation (creativity realized). It is the act of working together to create something larger than ourselves.

This second edition of Peernovation stands on the shoulders of Leo Bottary’s award-winning books, The Power of Peers (2016), What Anyone Can Do (2018), and Peernovation (2020). It is informed by the wisdom and experiences of dedicated forum leaders, group members, and team leaders during more than 700 facilitated programs. Beyond that, the content leans heavily on the disciplines of social learning theory, psychological safety, group dynamics, accountability, organizational culture, and systems thinking – building a bridge between the proven practices that have emerged from CEO Forums and what it will take to lead higher-performing, happier teams in today’s workplace.

Whether you are a team leader or team member, learn how to:
• select the right people for your team
• create psychological safety and inspire greater productivity
• build a positive culture of accountability
• become a better team leader
• foster a culture of continuous improvement

You'll find updates to the original narrative and six new chapters – all of which will help you leverage the power of Peernovation among the several generations who comprise your workforce. We are at the forefront of leading through unprecedented change. Doing so successfully will require relying on each other like never before. Let’s get started.
