Summary

When you see yourself as an artist, all your work can be a work of art.

They provide practical advice for applying creative processes from the arts to the business world.   Using the strategies detailed here, you'll learn to add the depth, texture, and nuance to your business that will differentiate it from the competition and help you connect with your customers the way great performers connect with audiences.

    Gary S. Michel sees no reason to overcomplicate anything, and in his brief but compelling book, deComplify, he outlines his refreshing take on the fundamentals, emphasizing what can be done to create a better business. It empowers leaders to take concrete steps towards building a great company. Beyond the tools and practical tips, readers will take away a renewed sense of purpose and vision, for their organization and themselves, which will define the difference they can make. A distracting and complifying mindset come at a huge cost, in both financial and emotional terms. Likewise, when complification builds in the workplace, it becomes an ever-increasing barrier to transforming a business into a great company. Decomplifying is more than the stripping away of excess. Real decomplifying streamlines processes for a purpose. That purpose is to create a great company. Read along to get away from focusing on process, and closer to focusing on what matters, like customers, your team, and more.
