The Age of Speed: Learning to Thrive in a More-Faster-Now World
by Vince Poscente

Austin, Texas: Bard Press, 2008

For everyone feeling trampled by the speed of life and business, author Vince Poscente reveals how to get ahead of the rush once and for all in The Age of Speed.

Unraveling the notion that in today’s world we need to slow down, Poscente illustrates why harnessing the power of speed is the ultimate solution for those seeking less stress, less busyness, and more balance. The Age of Speed shows this and other groundbreaking revelations at work with case studies drawn from renegade companies such as Netflix, Geico, and Nintendo. Full of counterintuitive insights and provocative research enlivened by a storyteller’s voice, The Age of Speed is a fun, fast read that will change your perspective and stick with you long after you finish the final page.

Vince Poscente, a business consultant and inductee into the Speaker Hall of Fame, used his unique perspective on speed to reach the gold medal round of the Olympic speed-skiing competition only four years after deciding to compete -- with no previous racing experience. With every effort concentrated on achieving his own top speed, he began to notice the pervasive and defining influence speed has in all our lives. Poscente is one of North America’s most sought-after keynote speakers. He lives in Dallas, Texas.
