Thinking into the Corners - Quick Guides for Managers Michel Theriault

Stop Thinking Outside The Box. When options are limitless, you'll miss the obvious. Instead, stretch yourself and your staff to find the valuable solutions waiting in the corners. Thinking outside the box doesn't work because we need an anchor or catalyst for our ideas, which are actually provided by the Box. That doesn't mean we can't make the box bigger, but it is always within practical boundaries. At the same time, we have internal filters and limits (the Circle) preventing us from stretching outside our comfort zone to develop ideas and discover solutions that should be obvious. Combining the Box and the Circle shows the corners where ideas are hidden or we haven't reached yet. So, there's no need to try thinking outside of the box when the solutions are within reach. Learn how to Think into the Corners to get results with this unique book.
