Through stories and exercises, this book teaches us how to cultivate the virtues of every breakthrough in business and in the rest of life: curiosity, clarity, passion and panoramic vision. It is an education in innovation. Innovation means cultivating insight to think above bwhere others are thinking, see patterns where others weave fragments, and weave it all together. In the end we have the means to create something extraordinary. Anyone can think like a CEO, inventor or entrepreneur if they train themselves to do so and Gary Hoover, founder of many ventures himself, speaks from personal experience. This book is geared towards the individual who seeks to think bigger and broader in business and in life in general.
