Create the Future (New Book)

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Plus The Innovation Handbook - Tactics for Disruptive Thinking

— February 10, 2020 — Business
I'm thrilled to announce my new double-sided book, Create the Future + The Innovation Handbook - Tactics for Disruptive Thinking. The 360 page guide is loaded with tactics, tools and frameworks to help make innovation and change happen.

The basic premise of Side 1: Create the Future, is that we are experiencing history's highest rate of change, which means you have more opportunity within your grasp than ever before. However, there are 7 traps of path dependency that cause us to get caught in a groove. In contrast, there are tactics for disruptive thinking that help you break free of those traps, bringing you closer to your potential.

Flip the book over and you get to explore The Innovation Handbook, which is a totally revised and updated edition of my award-winning bestseller, Exploiting Chaos. The book previously won an Axiom Book Award, was an Inc Best Book for Business Owners, and was #1 most-popular on CEO Read for 4 Months. That was a decade ago, and the lessons hold, but I had written the book for a different time of chaos, so I have updated each section, also adding dozens of tactics and workshop questions at the end of each section.

You are capable of more than you think. Discover your full potential, with some unforgettable stories you'll learn along the way! The book is available for pre-order on Amazon, shipping on March 10.

Special thanks to Malcolm Gladwell, Guy Kawasaki and Tony Hunter, who wrote forewords for the books.
