That's what our parents encouraged us to become when we grew up. But Mom and Dad were wrong. The future belongs to a very different kind of person with a very different kind of mind. The era of "left brain" dominance, and the Information Age that it engendered, are giving way to a new world in which "right brain" qualities—inventiveness, empathy, meaning—predominate. That's the argument at the center of this provocative and original book, which uses the two sides of our brains as a metaphor for understanding the contours of our times. In the tradition of Emotional Intelligence and Now, Discover Your Strengths, Daniel H. Pink offers a fresh look at what it takes to excel. A Whole New Mind reveals the six essential aptitudes on which professional success and personal fulfillment now depend, and includes a series of hands-on exercises culled from experts around the world to help readers sharpen the necessary abilities. This book will change not only how we see the world but how we experience it as well. Reviews Wow! This is not a self-help book. It's way more important than that. —Seth Godin, author of Purple Cow An audacious and powerful work. —Miami Herald For soon-to-be liberal arts graduates, it makes an encouraging graduation gift. —Newsweek For those wishing to give their creative muscles a workout, the book is full of exercises and resources. —Harvard Business Review This book is a miracle. Completely original and profound. —Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence About the Author Daniel H.
