review 1: Pretty basic book - there are a few concepts and recommendations on how to get ahead, and these are heavily illustrated with examples. I liked the examples, they were different than others I have seen for this type of topic. One of the main points I gathered was that more attempts at solving a problem are better than just one attempt, since you are looking for the unexpected and that's more likely to happen if you can approach a problem in multiple ways. Another interesting section is providing a caveat to the Gladstonian assertion that 10,000 hours of practice makes you an expert - that's if rules don't change, like in tennis, piano playing, or chess. If rules do change, like in business, that's not going to work. I liked the style of writing and will look for others by J... moreohansson.
review 2: I enjoyed The Medici Effect: What Elephants and Epidemics Can Teach Us About Innovation enough to buy this one, and it's nothing short of amazing. Yes, I've read a few of the stories before like those in Little Bets: How Breakthrough Ideas Emerge from Small Discoveries. Still, the fundamental message of this book is right on: You have to get out of your comfort zone to innovate. As I've said for a few years now, we have to be embrace randomness and uncertainty; we have get comfortable with being uncomfortable. Every business leader ought to read this book. Period. An excellent text. less
