An updated edition for an ever-shifting landscape of change Faisal Hoque (noted thought leader; serial entrepreneur; technology innovator; advisor to CEOs, BODs, and the US federal government; and author) provides a framework that shows readers how to: --Holistically connect the "when" and "what" with who they are; --Inspire and lead inside and outside of their organization; --Generate ideas, grounded decisions, and long-term value. Part philosophy, part business, and part history, this book is a kaleidoscopic view of the way humans - by being able to think out of the box - have been able to achieve greatness for themselves, their organizations, and the world at large. You'll learn from the wisdom of Eastern philosophies that are over 2,500 years old and the interconnected insights of Leonardo da Vinci. Couple that with Fortune 100 corporate cross pollination for creativity and startup thinking for how to adapt with ease, and you have Everything Connects. This isn't just a quick fix for your next financial quarter; this is how you succeed in the long run. This updated version includes new content that is inextricably connected to leveraging and thriving in this environment of change. Through the lens of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the COVID-19 pandemic, we can see how its essential to reframe the ways we approach how we work, play, and live. The new content adds further substance to the seminal focus of the first version of Everything Connects and furthers the core message that everything, in fact, does have a relationship to everything else resulting in a powerful synergy. -- Publisher's description.
