Hyperthinking is a set of values and tools that, used in combination, enable individuals to embrace change develop their creativity and effectively engage in the digital age. It has been tested by a variety of business executives and helped them to understand change, as well as overcome fear or resistance to technology.

Rezensionen

'Networks don't just change the way we interact with each other; they change the way we think, we learn and how we make decisions. Philip Weiss' HyperThinking captures the essence of these changes convincingly and provides you with a clear route to the thinking processes you will need to survive and thrive in this radically new and fast-changing business environment. Thomas Power, CEO and founder Ecademy 'Shifting your thinking patterns is the key to embracing change. HyperThinking is the kind of book you should read when you are in the middle of change, of a conflict, when you're managing a difficult project, when you just changed jobs, when you had your first child, when you just retired. It's a book about the way we think, or rather the

What this book taught me is that we have to live in a world where we cannot rely on traditional thinking patterns - these must be continuously challenged if we want to adapt to the ever-changing environment we live in. This is called hyperthinking, and it is giving people who want to make an impact on the world we live in a competitive edge. Some are natural-born hyperthinkers, others will have to learn it the hard way. This book will give you a headstart and will provide for an enjoyable and thought-provoking read. I'm proud to be a hyperthinker. Soon, you will feel the same way too.'

But Phil Weiss takes us beyond Heraclitus as he explores the tools for navigating the ever-changing river. By embracing the four modes of hyperthinking, everyone can move beyond convention and the fear of failure, and flex their thinking-muscles for innovative outcomes. In spite of the proven results over 100 years of the Montessoris and Steiners and Neil
