Publisher's summary

The seemingly intractable problems we face today, says author Marty Neumeier, are symptoms of a more basic problem—our inability to deal with interconnected, nonlinear, amorphous challenges. It’s not that our problems are too difficult, but that our skills are too basic. Success in the post-industrial era asks that we move our thinking from the static, the linear, and the step-by-step to the dynamic, the holistic, and the creative.

In this breathtaking vision of professional mastery, Neumeier presents five metaskills—feeling, seeing, dreaming, making, and learning—to help you reach your true potential in the creative workplace of the future.

Darn it Marty leave something for the rest of us

This book is a fantastic survey of problems facing business, the workforce and its managers. It distills these problems into concise articulations and proposes not solutions but approaches to betterment of ourselves so that we can scale outwards building more and better practitioners who can collaborate to solve them.

I’ve wrestled with many of the ideas presented in this book, but Marty has clarified them in a series of sequential essays that build on each other and within a framework of meta skills that must become a part of the next generation of workers.

This book will become required reading for my current team and all future teams that I lead.

Terrible. Religious in all the worst ways.

I’m only, part of the way through at this point, but it’s safe to say that this is not excellent. I will finish listening to the book just in case I’m wrong. If so, I’ll update this review.
