Abstract
Cultivating meaningful growth may well be an executive''s greatest challenge. Though it''s often overlooked, the effective management of uncertainty is one of the most critical dimensions of that growth. Some executives suppress uncertainty, while others simply ignore it. As these authors argue, neither approach is right. In fact, after carrying out extensive research, they concluded that wise executives learn to create organizations that embrace, rather than suppress, uncertainty. In the article, they describe a model for embracing uncertainty and how leaders can create and promote the right mindset in their organizations.
