The New Art of Ideas

For leaders, creators, and entrepreneurs, "an actionable way to move forward and create worthwhile ideas that will meet a need in the marketplace" (David Baldwin, author of The Belief Economy).

 


What separates a good idea from a great one? A great idea presents a well-formulated thought or plan of action that spurs growth, change, advancement, adaptation, or new insight. Worthwhile ideas move the needle; they change the playing field altogether. But most professionals cannot generate a solid idea. They either offer up tired, reused ones or generate lots of ideas but none that are worth pursuing. This book shows how to cultivate a mindset that produces the kind of ideas people can't turn down.

The New Art of Ideas is designed to help you consistently produce worthwhile ideas by becoming a nimble and imaginative thinker better equipped to compete and produce in a global economy. Robin Landa identifies the Three Gs of every good idea:


Goal—Your vision for the end result


Gap—The underdeveloped area that your idea fills


Gai—The overall benefits of your goal


With explanations and examples of each component, this book demystifies the process of effective ideation and hands you the key to unlock your creative potential.
