Adaptive Excellence - How the best leaders and teams optimise for performance and profit
Melanie Marshall
October 31, 2025

The ultimate playbook for high value change!

Every year companies across the globe spend billions of dollars on transformation and change projects but every year around 75% settle for mediocre results, and around 13% fail completely.

The approaches in this book are a blend of complex systems thinking made simple, constraints theory, behavioural economics, human centred design, and organisational change. Leveraging global research and over 20 years of experience in Australian organisations, this book shows how to:

· Develop leadership at every level
· Enable efficient and effective decisions
· Increase delivery quality and ease
· Facilitate change in a way that works
· Optimise return on investment.

This book is for leaders wanting realistic, easy-to-share, and proven methods for exceptional results and adaptive excellence at scale.

Using the approaches in this book, leaders and teams can measurably improve performance by at least 33% and feel good about it at the same time.
