Here's a sampling of the provocative thinking you'll find inside:</p><p>"You have to be the scientist of your own life and be astonished four times:at what is, what always has been, what once was, and what could be."</p><p>"The majority of products in most companies are cash traps . . . .[They] are not only worthless, but a perpetual drain on corporate resources."</p><p>"Use more debt than your competition or get out of the business."</p><p>"When information flows freely, reputation, more than reciprocity,becomes the basis for trust."</p><p>"As a strategic weapon, time is the equivalent of money, productivity,quality, even innovation."</p><p>"When brands become business systems, brand management becomes far too important to leave to the marketing department."</p><p>"The winning organization of the future will look more like a collection ofjazz ensembles than a symphony orchestra."</p><p>"Most of our organizations today derive from a model whose original purpose was to control creativity."</p><p>"Rather than being an obstacle, uncertainty is the very engine of transformation in a business, a continuous source of new opportunities."</p><p>"IP assets lack clear property lines. Every bit of intellectual property you can own comes with connections to other valuable innovations."</p>
