Community Leadership 4.0 by Carolyn Corbin offers up a unique and original approach for building and sustaining communities in the 21st Century. This book is about the cutting-edge skills required to evolve our old ideas about what a community is to what it could be. The future is not necessarily a continuation of the present and the author demonstrates how structural changes in communities are happening at "warp speed," thus impacting the future of community development. In today's "world gone wiki" environment, chaos is prevalent. Author Corbin points out the five major paradoxes that must be kept in balance in order to prevent community polarization, turmoil, and gridlock. Community Leadership 4.0 presents the most concise and up-to-date information available defining the leadership requirements necessary to nourish, support, and cultivate healthy and sustainable communities into the future.
