The Leader’s Oracle: Using Ancient Wisdom To Improve Strategy and Decision-Making explores a critical paradox in today’s leadership and corporate strategy environment: in a world obsessed with operational excellence and short-term wins while struggling with historic transformational changes, we often neglect the voices of the long-term thinkers, the strategic questioners, the ones who highlight or introduce ambiguity to force clarity.

About the book
In a world of tremendous change and simplistic AI-driven answers, it is easy to look to an uncertain future with anxiety. In The Leader’s Oracle, chief strategy and innovation officer Roopa Unnikrishnan shows that the wisest leaders instead look to the ancient past for inspiration. By channeling the Oracle of Delphi, these leaders ask better questions and challenge their organizations to transform. Offering a provocative lens on the future of strategic leadership, The Leader’s Oracle is not just a book about strategy—it is a call for a cultural shift in how we lead, how we think, and how we build organizations.
Through this uniquely powerful framework, readers will harness the timeless wisdom of the ancients to help their own business and career:
- operate at the edge of clarity
- interpret patterns and possibilities
- provoke transformation, not comfort
- protect future-facing wisdom in a reactive world
The Leader’s Oracle serves as a call to arms for leaders, board members, and aspiring strategists to embrace their inner Delphic voice—one that cuts through noise, evokes questions, and drives not just tactical maneuvers but tectonic shifts.
