Book excerpt: The story of creative and innovative behavior is about change," says author Gene N. Landrum. "In this case it is about thirteen iconoclastic individuals who have demonstrated a unique ability to deal with change in the world and redefine it for their own purposes." Landrum calls these individuals the "change masters," entrepreneurial geniuses whose innovations have had a profound influence on modern society: Steven Jobs (Apple Computer), Fred Smith (Federal Express), Tom Monaghan (Domino's Pizza), Nolan Bushnell (Atari), William Gates III (Microsoft), Marcel Bich (Bic), Solomon Price (The Price Club), Howard Head (Head Ski), William Lear (Lear Jet), Soichiro Honda (Honda), Akio Morita (Sony), Arthur Jones (Nautilus), and Ted Turner (CNN). Each of these business giants was motivated by what Landrum describes as an "innovisionary personality," which drove them to follow a unique inner vision of success and gave them an inviolable belief in themselves. Profiles of Genius demonstrates, through thirteen dynamic examples, that future entrepreneurial success in a global marketplace will depend on technological innovation, adaptability to change, intelligent risk-taking, and competitive drive.

Book Synopsis Paranoia & Power by : Gene N. Landrum
Download or read book Paranoia & Power written by Gene N. Landrum and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A self-help work on the inhibiting inner fears that either motivate or debilitate. As a pundit once said, Hesitate and you are lost. Why do most people hesitate? Fear! The fear of not being good enough or the fear that comes from thinking too much. We are afraid of those things we don’t understand, but the true visionaries jump right into those fears and they magically disappear. Fear was the fuel of the passions of Elvis. In the case of director Steven Spielberg, he had a deep-seated fear of the dark. The only time he wasn’t afraid when in a theater where he escaped into the fantasy of make-believe. What did that have to with his accumulating two billion dollars? Plenty! As he told the media, when he was in his twenties he would get sort of nauseous stage fright—and his insecurities were the fuel for his stories. With examples ranging from Judy Garland to Bob Dylan, Madonna to Jack Nicholson, this book shows how fear can be the catalyst for ending up in the penthouse or the poorhouse, depending on how we deal with it.
Book Synopsis Eureka! The Science of Genius by : Scientific American Editors
Download or read book Eureka! The Science of Genius written by Scientific American Editors and published by Scientific American. This book was released on 2015-11-16 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we define genius? For the Mega Society, it means a one-in-a-million level score on an IQ test, which is why the society only has 27 members. Standardized testing to measure intelligence began in the first half of the 20th century, but a high IQ score is only one way to quantify genius. Another is by virtue of extraordinary achievement and expertise in science and the arts. The second is probably more useful, but these debates illustrate how little we know about the origins, development or processes of intelligence. In this eBook, Eureka! The Science of Genius, we review the latest research on the nature of intellectual and creative achievement, including traits that geniuses tend to share, how much of their ability is nature versus nurture, the cognitive processes involved during the stages of discovery and creativity, and, most importantly, what we can do to enhance intelligence. While genetics have a large role to play, even geniuses have to work to gain the necessary expertise – although they have to spend less time to acquire it than their less endowed counterparts – as Dean Keith Simonton points out in the eBook’s namesake article, “The Science of Genius.” Imaging research also indicates that there is no one “blueprint” for intelligence. In “What Does a Smart Brain Look Like?” Richard J. Haier explains how women and men with the same IQ scores show different patterns of gray and white matter, suggesting that the structural roots of intelligence may differ by gender. Many articles look at either nurturing intelligence in children or enhancing it in adults, and the good news is that intellectual abilities are not set in stone. In fact, one method is surprisingly simple – move. As Christopher Hertzog points out in “Fit Body, Fit Mind?” physical activity is linked to mental acuity and can help slow the cognitive decline that comes with aging. Research is also providing insight into what happens in the brain when we learn, leading to changes in educational practices. In “What Works, What Doesn’t,” psychology professors describe study techniques that accelerate learning—and reveal that the most popular methods are actually a waste of time, and in “Calisthenics for a Child’s Mind,” Ingrid Wickelgren reports on brain-training exercises that show promise in classrooms. Carol S. Dweck advocates the importance of a “growth mind-set” that focuses on effort and effective strategies rather than innate intelligence in her article “The Secret to Raising Smart Kids.” This approach emphasizes hard work and love of the challenge of learning, an approach that could benefit everyone, regardless of IQ score.
