Not Going Back

Paul Blum

The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday’s logic.

—Peter Drucker

Perhaps it’s true that change is the only constant. But when change is sudden and accelerated, even the most forward thinkers can find themselves clinging to an outdated normal.

“Returning” or “remaining” are no longer options as you lead your teams into the post-pandemic world. How will you accomplish your goals in this new environment and stay ahead of the curve? What does adaptation look like for your organization? What does adaptation look like for you, the leader?

In Not Going Back, strategic visionary Paul Blum provides actionable steps for living a happier life, becoming a great leader, and delivering results your organization needs. Paul’s success during more than thirty years leading global luxury brands and with fashion retail firms like Kenneth Cole and David Yurman has depended on his agility as a leader and ability to anticipate next steps. With a focus on cultivating self-awareness, sustainability, culture, and communication, Not Going Back is a practical resource with timeless principles that will help you evolve as both a person and a leader.

Paul Blum has spent the last three decades as a leading executive of some of the world’s most recognized consumer product companies, using his strategic vision and innovative passion to take iconic brands to extraordinary levels. As CEO of Kenneth Cole, David Yurman, Juicy Couture, Fred Segal, and Henry Bendel, Paul’s ability to stay ahead of change solidified every brand he worked for as a market leader.
