In Flash of Brilliance, William Miller
takes you on a creative journey -- an adventure of discovery
designed to unleash the creative spirit in yourself, your
teams, and your organization. Blending research, case examples,
and a highly original set of models and exercises, Miller
brings your creative process alive so that it fosters personal
fulfillment as it focuses creative inspiration.
Flash of Brilliance offers specific
techniques for recognizing your own Innovation Styles, overcoming
obstacles to creativity, and stimulating people to make
their most unique contributions to new products, quality
processes, business strategies, and even organizational
design. Miller convincingly demonstrates how your executives,
team leaders, and key contributors can build a culture of
"strategic innovation management" where the best
ideas rise to the top and you make proactive decisions even
in unpredictable business environments.
Innovation requires more than great minds,
rapid learning, and new ideas. It requires your heart and
soul, personal investment and courage. In this light, Miller
takes you beyond the knowledge-based learning organization,
beyond normal team building, and even beyond the "creative
edge" of long-standing innovative companies. Flash
of Brilliance gives you practical ways to develop the
profoundly more authentic and caring relationships that
are essential for knowledge-creation, breakthrough creativity,
and rapid implementation of great ideas.
At its core, Flash of Brilliance
is about achieving growth -- both personal and professional
-- by providing everyone with the opportunity to integrate
their deepest personal purposes, values, and spirit into
a unified business effort. Miller even constructs the elusive
bridge that links spirituality with creative business success.
Ultimately, Flash of Brilliance is certain to inspire
and energize you and your colleagues as you seek greater
effectiveness in putting your personal values and creativity
to work.
William C. Miller is President of Global
