| Drawing on research from around the advanced world, the author of "Free Agent Nation" outlines the six fundamentally human abilities that are essential for professional success and personal fulfillment--and reveals how to master them. |
|
From the Publisher:
Uses the two sides of the human brain as a metaphor for understanding how the information age came about throughout the course of the past generation, counseling readers on how to survive and find a place in a society that is marked by rising affluence, job outsourcing, and computer technology at the expense of inventiveness, empathy, and meaning. Book available. |
Annotation:
Daniel H. Pink, former speechwriter for Al Gore and bestselling author of FREE AGENT NATION, returns with a thought-provoking book arguing that we are entering a new age, the "conceptual age," where right-brain thinking will dominate the cultural and business world. He compares this paradigm-shift as similar to the one between the "industrial age" and the "information age," a time when new skill sets became necessary, and new models for economic success appeared. In particular, Pink proposes six "senses" that people must develop to thrive in the conceptual age: design, story, sympathy, empathy, play, and meaning.
