Discovery: Extraordinary Results from Everyday Learning

About the Book: Learning and discovering new insights is the key to delivering real business and personal benefits. Continually discovering new and better ways of doing things will energise you and enable you to achieve a more successful, productive and satisfying work-life balance. In this book, John Drysdale provides a highly original and practical framework to develop your abilities. Instead of the traditional methods of learning (ie, training courses, business schools), the author offers a new and “closer to home” way of self-development. Some of the most fruitful and rewarding paths to discovery and learning in fact reside in unexpected places – in theatre, literature, music, art, sport and in the achievements of others (explorers, statesmen). Learning from these experiences and examples takes you to places outside of your current (business) world, thus making discovery more enriching and interesting. It also develops within you the ability to take new perspectives on problems and issues at work.
