Summary

It’s hard to come up with a big idea - but it doesn’t have to be. Because great ideas don’t come from the inside-out - they come from the outside-in. The good stuff is out there, waiting. We just have to know how to see it. And in our fast-changing work world, this might be the most useful skill our teams can have.

Here, organizational culture expert Daniel Coyle talks about the books that helped shape his own creative process. Join Daniel, along with an observant young spy who’s a pro at connecting the dots, a cadre of supersonic test pilots and astronauts racing to be first, and a team that dared to use math to win - and learn about three concrete steps your team can take to strengthen idea-generation muscles and make eureka moments happen more often.

Key Takeaways:

  • Change Your Mind: Small shifts (like sitting in a new seat) can reveal hidden opportunities all around us
  • Find the Right Details: Practices to train your powers of observation
  • Practice Reframing: Tips for turning small insights into big ideas
  • Elevate Your Team: Practices for getting your team into the right headspace - like “flash mentoring”

About the Mentor:

Daniel is the New York Times best-selling author of The Talent Code and most recently The Culture Code, which won top business book awards from Bloomberg, Business Insider, and Amazon. He works as a contributing editor for Outside magazine and as a special adviser to the Cleveland Indians.

Simple ideas can lead to great ones

Writer used simple ideas to narrate ways to generate great ideas. Often times we are looking at complex things and get overwhelmed.

Annoying music

Can’t focus on the content due to so much background music. Really ruins the audiobook
