Summary

The purpose of Good Success is to help readers learn and integrate into their life and career the good lessons learned from bad leaders. 

Bad leaders drive organizational dysfunction, incarnate indecision, and deplete personal energy and team resolve. Also, bad leaders exhaust resources and hope. But, through Good Success readers gain the knowledge and the lessons to overcome the damage, shape their awareness, and build new courage to navigate beyond the chaos. Good Success enable recovery from the effects of bad leadership, creates the means to achieving self-mastery, brings closure to previous negative circumstances, and so much more. It is possible that those who work for bad leaders have already written-off any chance of benefiting from the chaos that they create. If so, Good Success helps readers draw a valuable inheritance from the F.E.A.R. (failures, experiences, anxieties, roadblocks) they’ve seen bad leaders produce.

    There is a mythology around creativity  a hazy system of  beliefs developed to try to understand what many believe to be  incomprehensible. Because of this mythology, many  businesspeople view creativity and innovation as vague and  inaccessible, assuming that creativity happens through a largely  transcendent process of inspiration to which only a select few  are granted access. Fortunately for all of us who need to be  more creative or lead our organizations through a creativity  process, this is simply not the case, and The Myths of  Creativity shows how anyone can drop the faulty conventional  wisdom of creativity, understand the actual research behind how the  creative process works, and ultimately generate impressive creative  results.  Each chapter of The Myths of Creativity debunks one  erroneous assumption about the creative process:    Chapter 1: The Sacred Myth: Creativity is not a distant  inspiration given to a select few, but comes from within  Chapter 2: The Breed Myth: Creativity is not a trait  that only certain individuals hold and pass along  Chapter 3: The Eureka Myth: Creative insight is not the  sudden spark romanticized by stories of Newtons Apple or  Archimedes bathtub, but involves a slow hunch  Chapter 4: The Originality Myth: Most creative ideas are  not unique or original, but are usually new combinations of older  ideas.  Chapter 5: The Expert Myth: Highly trained experts in a  particular domain are sometimes incapable of generating creative  insight. Instead, outsiders can provide the fresh perspective  needed to creatively solve complex problems.  Chapter 6: The Incentive Myth: Traditional incentives  like bonuses, awards or other carrots provide little  influence on creativity  Chapter 7: The Lone Creator Myth: Most innovation is the  product of a group of individuals and not any one person.  Chapter 8: The Brainstorming Myth: Creativity requires  more than merely the rapid generation of ideas.  Chapter 9: The Cohesive Myth: Cohesive cultures and  feel good environments can hinder innovation.  Chapter 10: The Constraints Myth: While the traditional  view of creativity is out-of-the-box or no  limits, constraints can actually help enhance creativity in  individuals and teams.  Chapter 11: The Mousetrap Myth: Creative ideas and  innovations dont experience immediate celebration like the  proverbial better mousetrap. Instead, they often  experience backlash as a first reaction.  Chapter 12: The Moral Myth: Enhancing creativity is not  always good.    The chapters are filled with fresh case studies from  Burkuss dissertation research.  The Myths of Creativity is essential reading for anyone  who feels like creativity is a struggle. It demystifies the  creative process, debunks myths that may be holding back your  creative juices, and ultimately will result in more and better  ideas for you and your team.

    Welcome to the world of project management in the age of AI. The revolution is here, and it's time to embrace it. As project managers, we are living in a world of constant change and disruption, and AI technology is transforming the way we work. We need to adapt, evolve, and embrace the opportunities that AI technology presents.    The potential of AI technology in project management is immense. It can help us to automate repetitive tasks, streamline processes, and deliver insights that were previously inaccessible. By leveraging AI technology, project managers can unlock new growth opportunities, increase profitability, and stay ahead of the competition.    However, the rise of AI technology also presents challenges for project managers. As project managers, we need to learn how to manage complex AI projects, collaborate with AI teams, and interpret AI-generated insights. We need to develop new skills, embrace new technologies, and adopt a growth mindset to succeed in the age of AI.    The challenge of managing AI projects requires project managers to learn new skills and approaches. For example, project managers need to understand how to manage projects with AI-driven analytics, such as machine learning algorithms, and how to integrate these insights into their project plans. Additionally, project managers need to be able to manage the complexity of AI projects, which often involve large amounts of data and multiple stakeholders.    To overcome these challenges, project managers need to adopt a growth mindset and embrace new technologies. This means being willing to learn new skills, experiment with new tools, and collaborate with AI teams. Project managers also need to be able to interpret AI-generated insights and incorporate them into their project plans effectively.    In this book, we explore the challenges facing project managers in the AI revolution and the specific needs project managers have to succeed in the age of AI. We provide strategies, tools, and resources for project managers to leverage AI technology to create value-based propositions and intellectual property.    We also share case studies and examples of successful AI projects, as well as stories of project managers overcoming challenges in the AI revolution. These examples illustrate the impact of AI technology on project management and provide lessons learned to help project managers understand how to apply these strategies and insights to their own projects.    Our goal is to help project managers unlock the full potential of AI technology and take their projects and organizations to the next level. We encourage the reader to reflect on their own skills and recognize the growth potential that AI technology presents. We want to inspire and motivate project managers to embrace the challenges and opportunities of the AI revolution.    So, are you ready to step into the unknown and embrace the growth potential of your company through AI-driven project management? Let's begin this journey together and unlock the power of AI technology.
