LEAP! How to Think Like a Dolphin & Do the Next Right, Smart Think Come Hell or High Water

INTRODUCING THE NEW NEXT LEVEL PSYCHOLOGY THAT PROPELS YOU TO WHERE THE ANSWERS ARE

Prize what's right. Dump what's dumb. Find what works. Then, make it happen by reordering your reality at a new level of simplicity, effectiveness and satisfaction.

In a nutshell, those are precisely the kind of spot-on observations and outcomes made possible by the thinking qualities illuminated in this trailblazing book.

Veteran change and strategy expert Dudley Lynch, president of Brain Technologies Corporation, says these skills can become available to any of us when we activate the unique thinking characteristics of what he calls the dolphin mind. In contrast to the increasingly antiquated and overwhelmed carp, shark and not-quite-flying-fish minds, the dolphin mind isn't swamped by the rapid-change demands of the Twenty-First Century. Instead, it is constantly searching for ways to make the leap to the next right, smart, good thing or move.

In this galvanizing work with universal appeal, Mr. Lynch demonstrates one more time why he is considered by many to be the most insightful, eloquent and inspiring guide to the work of the late Clare W. Graves, psychology's most original interdisciplinary explorer of how the mind grows. And why he is uniquely equipped to offer dependable counsel on how to respond to the unprecedented demands of our change-fraught new century.

Next level powers and abilities that he seeks for every reader include:

The super-glues of self-healing, raised to a whole new effectiveness.

The confidence to confront. And then, where possible, to include.

An automatic aversion to incompetence. (And a game plan for dealing with it.)

Wonderment, then exploration, then activation. (Because it's your nature.)

The judgment of the merciful & the passion of the justice seeker. And the wisdom to know the difference.

Awareness, so you can always find your way forward.

Resilience, so you can always find your way back.

And, of course, the ability to make the leap to what's next, what's possible, what makes sense and what works any time and every time the world confronts you with the need to do something different.

LEAP! Also profiles the life stories and achievements (so far) of nine gifted leapers. Some of them you are unlikely to have heard of. Some make new headlines daily. But they all have one thing in common: As dolphinthinkers, they excel at making the leap to the next level again and again. They include probably the most competent, innovative and influential fire chief in the history of the fire service, the American medical profession's very own version of the prophet Jeremiah, the young French scholar who has helped develop a whole new kind of economics to make leaps work better for the poorest of the world's poor and one of the world's most fearless dolphinthinkers. (By age 17, he had identified what he felt were three important, world-class problems deserving his attention. Before age 40, he had created ambitious, pioneering new companies in each category that had gotten him named one of America's most powerful young CEOs and made him a billionaire.)
