NEW YORK CITY -- It’s called “faction” and entrepreneur and author Bob Kaplan uses the writing style that combines fiction with facts for a new approach to leading and evolving.
Change is hard, Mr. Kaplan notes. The challenge is to get whatever is blocking change out of the way, first by identifying the inside-your-head blockages.

Mr. Kaplan’s new book uses eight short fictionalized real-life cases that bring that struggle for self-improvement to life.
His new book is “GRAPPLING: Leaders Striving To Improve,” (River Grove Books, August 2024).
Mr. Kaplan earned his doctorate in organizational behavior from Yale and lives in New York City with his wife, Becky. His previous book is “Fear Your Strengths—What You’re Best At Is Probably Your Biggest Problem.”
