The Road to Reinvention. How to Drive Disruption and Accelerate Transformation (Josh Linkner).

The Road to Reinvention is a book written by Josh Linkner, who believes that businesses, communities and individuals often fail to reinvent themselves, thereby losing their market positions to competitors or external forces. He offers a systematic method for challenging business practices and reinventing oneself, especially for those looking to accelerate personal growth and career path.

The book starts with a description of how ventures like Detroit have experienced cycles of success and failure that propel them into transformation. These stories of urban renewal and innovative structures provide an insight into a systematic process of "re-imaging" in the pursuit of reinvention.

Linkner delves into the theory of disruption and its importance as an essential element in the life cycle of a company. In particular, he outlines the six areas that organizations can focus upon for reinventive transformations and devises practical steps, techniques and examples to realize productively disruptive enterprises.

In addition to providing an inside look at the transformational journey that Detroit has traveled, the book traces its evolution from a prosperous ground to bankruptcy in decades, and then a resurgence that includes a more intense focus on renewed business models and reinvestment in social endeavors. Such a focused examination of Detroit and its reinvention story, coupled with Linkner's established venture capital experience, has allowed him to help frame the foundation for maintaining and growing successful organizations and careers through reinvention. The Reisder provides an engaging introduction to the process of re-imagination and accelerates personal and professional growth.
