Acclaim for businessThink"businessThink introduces a powerful, yet simple, framework for achieving breakthrough results. . . . businessThink breaks the old ?business as usual' rules, which we've too often blindly followed or lazily accepted. Then, through a sequential process of disciplined thinking, this new framework teaches us how to get it right-- no excuses. Never before have I seen a framework that so disciplines our mindset and heart to balance logic and pragmatism with intuition and idealism." -- From the Foreword by Stephen R. Covey author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People"businessThink is a gem. Its ?common sense' is in fact very uncommon sense. Follow the Eight Rules the authors derived from their research and consulting, and you'll dramatically up the odds of success-- and the joy that flows from work well done." -- Tom Peters"businessThink is every person's MBA for the real world. It takes straight aim at the decades of dysfunction in business and hits the mark with a real-world ?degree' of pragmatic, new thinking for new times." -- Tom Curley, CEO and Publisher, USA Today"Thinking is hard. Thinking creatively is harder. Thinking creatively about business is the hardest. This book not only enlightens you from hard to hardest but does it with profound simplicity. " -- Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business Administration The University of Southern California; author, Managing the Dream"The lessons of businessThink are understandable and actionable. If your organization-- like ours-- wants to be recognized as the best, this book should be required reading for all current and future business leaders and managers." -- William G. Parrett, President and Managing Partner Deloitte & Touche LLP"In a world that demands single-minded focus and disciplined, fact-based decisions at warp speed, businessThink provides a commonsense, jargon-free return to the core concept of creating real value in business." -- Gary Crittenden, Chief Financial Officer American Express Company"businessThink . . . could very well, in my opinion, qualify as the 8th Habit of Highly Effective People. The book is simply brilliant . . . a true leader's road map in leveraging and maximizing the intellectual capitalism of today's businessperson." -- Pete Beaudrault, President and CEO Hard Rock Cafe International, Inc.

The book is simply brilliant . . . a true leader's road map in leveraging and maximizing the intellectual capitalism of today's businessperson.'-- Pete Beaudrault, President and CEOHard Rock Cafe International, Inc., Research shows that over fifty percent of all business decisions fail; sixty percent of all businesses fail before the sixth year, and eighty-two percent go under before their tenth anniversary; and eight out of every ten new products fail. In direct contrast, research also shows that ninety-one percent of all businesspeople are as confident as ever in making decisions. Decision confidence is up. Success is down. While we are an inventive, entrepreneurial society, an innovation explosion has also been tagged with a business implosion. What gives? businessThink is a revolutionary new method that bridges the monumental gap between the results businesses and people want and the failure they often get. This book is the only business training that tomorrow's leaders will need to consistently create effective solutions and take themselves and their associates into the zone of optimum performance. businessThink transforms readers into businessthinkers with provocative new rules for accelerating work while revitalizing the enterprise. With rules like "Check Your Ego at the Door," "Move Off the Solution," "Get Evidence," and "Create Curiosity." businessThink promises to significantly increase results by delivering hard core business thinking and fusing it with high intuition and emotional intelligence that open up, rather than shut down, thinking and collaboration. Effectively blended, these skills become the new business intelligence that is needed to get it right-no matter what.
