Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author Celebrates Peterside’s Book

A professor at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management and a Wall Street Journal (WSJ) bestselling co-author of “The Human Element: Overcoming the Resistance That Awaits New Ideas” (a Thinkers50 Best Management Book of 2022), Loran Nordgren, has endorsed Dakuku Peterside’s book: “Leading in a Storm”.

Nordgren, who is also the founder of Aerocept, a leading behavioural design agency and a Poets & Quants’ Best 40 Under 40’Outstanding Business School professor, declared the book, “a must-read for any leader who wants to navigate the storms on the horizon.”

He said, “In technology, politics and the environment, we are undeniably living through times of disruption and upheaval. This moment calls for leaders with the skills and strategies to navigate crises. Based on both research and years of practical experience, this book provides a timely blueprint for those critical moments – a must-read for any leader who wants to navigate the storms ahead successfully.”

Prof. Nordgren is recognised as one of the world’s leading psychologists and a recipient of the De Finnett Prize from the European Association for Decision Makers. His positive evaluation of Dr. Peterside’s work explicitly indicates global significance.

“Leading in a Storm”, a practical book on crisis leadership, which delves into strategies for navigating uncertainty, decision-making in high-pressure situations and maintaining team morale, was earlier praised by Harvard Kennedy School’s Hugh O’Doherty, who described it as an indispensable resource for leaders facing uncertainty and upheaval.
