About The Author

Dennis Akkerman is the visionary founder and managing director of Orbis Business School.

He wrote Business as UNusual after witnessing first-hand how endless corporate restructuring, bottomless cost-cutting and short-sighted leadership are not the right ways to navigate a business through uncertain times. In his view, these are destructive measures that kill morale, momentum and meaning. True transformation, however, is a constructive force that brings clarity in chaos and confidence amid uncertainty.

Drawing on over two decades of leading change across industries and continents, Akkerman introduces a bold new approach to leadership for those ready to break from the status quo and build something better.
