Description

The Leader Upheaval Handbook: Lead Teams on an Innovation & Collaboration Journey with The 3-4-5 Method Michele DeStefano ISBN 9781639053476

One of the greatest obstacles to innovation in professional services is the lack of training in how to apply design thinking and lead multidisciplinary teams through collaborative problem-solving. This handbook—designed to complement Professor Michele DeStefano’s earlier works, Leader Upheaval and Legal Upheaval—addresses that gap directly.

A former marketing executive and now a professor at the University of Miami School of Law, as well as Affiliated Faculty and Program Chair in Harvard Law School’s Executive Education program, DeStefano has spent more than a decade researching client-centricity, collaboration, and innovation. This handbook reflects the culmination of 13 years of experience guiding more than 230 multidisciplinary, multicultural, and intergenerational teams through intensive, four-month innovation journeys—from identifying a problem to delivering a viable solution.

Written in an accessible, conversational style, the book offers step-by-step guidance on fostering proactive collaboration and innovation using DeStefano’s proven 3-4-5 Method™. This structured approach moves teams from challenge to solution across three phases, in four months or less, using five clear steps. Grounded in real-world examples, the handbook brings the process to life, showing how teams can work together more effectively to solve problems or seize opportunities—while achieving greater collaboration, inclusivity, creative thinking, and tangible results.
