Beschreibung

We live in a competitive world. You are expected to do well in school so you can get into a good university, a good job, and a good life. Good in this context means “better than.” On the other hand, creation is the ability to bring new ideas into the world–in business, philosophy, the arts, and life. In reality, the road to creation is paved with blood, sweat, and tears. If you really want to offer something that is genuinely creative or innovative, you need to dare to be different! This challenging and original book blends interdisciplinary insights from technology, the arts, popular culture, and more, in order to unlock the secrets to genuine innovation and creativity. For anyone wanting to move beyond merely competing, this book contains compelling insights and inspirations to help effect real change.

    Improvement is not innovation…and innovation is essential if your aim is to survive in today’s business environment. 
    Stealing Genius lays the foundation for a dramatic and long-overdue shift in 21st-century strategic marketing and branding. Most executives and decision-makers are now focused on improving what they already have. However, fixating on improvement in today’s world is a dangerous path—one that ultimately leads to commoditization and irrelevance. 
    Targeting your time, attention, and resources on innovation, by contrast, means identifying something that does not exist right now in any form—something that will create a powerful, uncopyable experience for your target customer. 
    In order to be successful both today and in the future, you need to separate yourself from the competition by practicing the breakthrough principle of adaptive innovation—or Stealing Genius. How? By delivering an experience that the competition either cannot or will not attempt to copy. You must create a new experience that is unique to you and that fosters a powerful emotional attachment with your target customer. 
    Featuring dozens of real-life case studies from a wide range of industries, Stealing Genius outlines Miller’s proven six-step process for creating an uncopyable experience. You’ll learn how to:Do more than think outside the box—you’ll build a new box completelyIdentify your “moose”, the distinctive customer/client profile for which you are huntingLeverage insight from daily experience, personal heroes, and organizations outside your industry to better serve your customersFlip the competition by doing the exact opposite of what those in your industry are currently doingMaximize your strategic innovation by bringing in a Stealing Genius facilitator 
    Create a truly original brand experience and start pioneering in your industry by implementing the game-changing process of Stealing Genius.

    “The most comprehensive and comprehendible history of the West Virginia Coal War I’ve ever read.” —John Sayles, writer and director of Matewan   On September 1, 1912, the largest, most protracted, and deadliest working-class uprising in American history was waged in West Virginia. On one side were powerful corporations whose millions bought armed guards and political influence. On the other side were fifty thousand mine workers, the nation’s largest labor union, and the legendary “miners’ angel,” Mother Jones. The fight for unionization and civil rights sparked a political crisis that verged on civil war, stretching from the creeks and hollows of the Appalachians to the US Senate. Attempts to unionize were met with stiff resistance. Fundamental rights were bent—then broken. The violence evolved from bloody skirmishes to open armed conflict, as an army of more than fifty thousand miners finally marched to an explosive showdown.   Extensively researched and vividly told, this definitive book about an often-overlooked chapter of American history, “gives this backwoods struggle between capital and labor the due it deserves. [Green] tells a dark, often despairing story from a century ago that rings true today” (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette).

    We all love the fairy tales we grew up on, creating a world in which good always wins over evil, where those whose hearts are true and who do the right thing come out on top. But, grown-up competition for success is rough, even cutthroat, and we've often heard that nice guys finish last.  Not according to Howard Behar, whose career as one of the three leaders who built the Starbucks organization most definitely proves that nice guys finish first. In THE MAGIC CUP, Behar spins an engaging corporate tale to teach us exactly how we can do the same thing.   The story revolves around Vince Steadfast, the newly named CEO of imaginary manufacturer Verity Glassworks, which has fallen on difficult times. Vince is hired to help the once iconic company return to its glory days, and he brings with him a parting gift from his mentor and former boss: a stunning crystal coffee cup from Verity's halcyon days. The cup turns out to be magic - truly - and helps him come to understand and reinvigorate the values that Verity has misplaced along the way.  As Vince and his new team make their way to (and through) many challenges, including the aptly named Worthy Way, Perilous Passage and Arduous Stair, the cup fills with a gold elixir and the universal truths that they learn to embrace - such as Responsibility, Forgiveness and Courage - magically become engraved in the glass.   In the tradition of great parable writers throughout history, Behar quickly involves us in an engrossing fantasy, continually challenging us to compare each situation with our own real-life experiences. The story of THE MAGIC CUP helps each of us discover that only by acting on sound moral principles can we fill our own cups with the personal and professional success and satisfaction we seek.

    Start Before You're Ready offers entrepreneurs an inspiring new road map to success — one that runs against nearly everything you've ever been taught about business. Author Mick Spencer is living proof that success doesn't always rest down the traditional path of formal education and deep pockets.At the age of 22, with nothing to his name, he founded ONTHEGO Custom Apparel (otgcustom.com), a customized apparel and uniform company. Since then he has built a worldwide network of movers and shakers and raised millions in venture capital. His company is now a multi-million-dollar player on the international stage, disrupting the slow-moving industry with a modern blend of technological disruptions and social responsibility. In this audiobook, he presents a solid case that analysis paralysis and endless "preparation" won't get you anywhere — you have to take that leap and do what you really want to do. Indeed, start before you're ready.Spencer challenges you to get outside your comfort zone and, although intimidating, his approach forces you to learn "on the go" and focus on what you can do rather than what you can't. Engrossing personal anecdotes coach you through the frustrations and challenges, while vital tools and clear strategies give you a concrete plan for making every day count.
