Regular price $27.00 Sale

For too long, the term insubordination has evoked negative feelings and mental images. But for ideas to evolve and societies to progress, it’s vital to cultivate rebels who are committed to challenging conventional wisdom and improving on it. Change never comes easily. And most would-be rebels lack the skills to overcome hostile audiences who cling desperately to the way things are.
 
Based on cutting-edge research, 
The Art of Insubordination is the essential guide for anyone seeking to be heard, make change, and rebel against an unhealthy status quo.  Learn how to
  
  Resist the allure of complacency
  
  Discover the value of being around people who stop conforming and start deviating.
  
  Produce messages that influence the majority-- when in the minority.
  
  Build mighty alliances
  
  Manage the discomfort when trying to rebel
  
  Champion ideas that run counter to traditional thinking
