About this ebook

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.

Peernovation is a mindset shift. It’s a nudge to show up for your team differently. If you’re a leader, manager, coach, or even just someone who’s tired of Zoom calls that feel like you're shouting into the void, this book is for you. Bottary gives you more than a framework; he gives you a reason to believe that collaboration isn’t just efficient; it’s deeply human. I finished it feeling both smarter and more connected.

About the author

Leo Bottary is the founder and managing partner of Peernovation, LLC. Leo is a sought-after thought leader on Peer Advantage and Peernovation, emerging disciplines dedicated to strategically engaging peers to achieve personal and organizational excellence. An award-winning author, keynote speaker and workshop facilitator, he also serves as an instructor for Rutgers University and an Opinion Columnist for CEOWORLD Magazine. Leo’s first book, The Power of Peers (2016), coauthored with former Vistage CEO Leon Shapiro, explores how and why formal peer groups for CEOs and business leaders are so effective. What Anyone Can Do (2018), examined the importance of enlisting and engaging the complete circle of the people who surround us in both formal and informal settings. The first edition of Peernovation (2020) built a bridge between what the highest-performing CEO Forums do so well and how to apply their proven practices to create outstanding organizational teams. Before teaching at Rutgers, Leo was an adjunct professor for Seton Hall University’s MASCL program, where he led online learning teams and on-campus residencies. In April 2015, he was named adjunct teacher of the year for the College of Communication and the Arts. Earlier in his career, Leo served in senior leadership positions at Mullen and Hill & Knowlton, where he was also Director of Client Service for the US. In the mid-1990s, he founded a public relations agency that a leading industry trade publication hailed as a regional powerhouse, new media pioneer, and great place to work. Leo earned a BA from Jacksonville University, an MA in Strategic Communication and Leadership from Seton Hall University, and he completed his doctoral coursework at Northeastern University.
