| We are in a true innovation race - whether we know it or not. The skill of innovating -- constantly, and quickly -- may be the new survival skill of the era. | Greetings. The formula may be simple: Learn; try; adapt; tweak; innovate; implement and execute. At the First Friday Book Synopsis, we are trying to help you with the learning component. Then, it is up to each of us to put what we learn into practice. This month is "let's think about innovation" month. Karl will present his synopsis of Self-help messiah: Dale Carnegie and success in modern America by Steven Watts. If ever there was a true innovator - someone who changed the very landscape of American business success - Dale Carnegie may be that person. And I will present the newest book on innovation by the Kelley brothers, the IDEO folks (the Design Firm). They have been at this for a few decades now, and have developed genuine deep expertise in this skill of innovating -- a skill they are convinced can be learned by all of us. This is a terrific book: Creative Confidence: Unleashing the Creative Potential Within Us All by David Kelley and Tom Kelley. We hope to see you February 7. Put the date in your calendar; invite a friend, or two; come learn with us. I think you will find it to be a valuable use of an early Friday morning. Randy Mayeux ps - The Park City Club has a spectacular view of the city, and the best breakfast! you can find -- with a made-to-order omelet bar, and a full and scrumptious buffet. Bring your appetite. and...
