La nuova epoca, caratterizzata dal cambiamento continuo come unica costante, ci chiama a un nuovo esercizio della leadership. L'autore ci propone il nuovo paradigma della leadership attraverso una potente metafora basata sulle attitudini di alcuni animali marini: il delfino ama il cambiamento, lo squalo ama la stabilità, la medusa si affida alla corrente. Questa potente metafora suggerisce al lettore i nuovi comportamenti da agire nei confronti del team che si gestisce e, in generale, di chi ci sta intorno.
