Breakthrough

The Breakthrough Blueprint changes the way leaders think about breakthroughs and innovative thinking. Rather than relying on lone geniuses, lightbulb moments, “creative types,” or long battering-ram sessions approaching the ‘how’ of the challenge, they will learn how any individual can structure their days to unobtrusively create the mindset and environment where breakthroughs are not only consistent occurrences but can be immediately acted upon to create the optimal desired impact. The book provides an actionable, clearly delineated, architectural structure for optimizing the impact of breakthrough ideas—something that has always been treated as an intangible, “fuzzy” topic. It includes illustrative case studies of each element as employed by NBA players and widely admired business leaders.

The Breakthrough Blueprint breaks down the components of breakthrough thinking into a formula that is so easily employed, it can be pegged to the hours in your day. Rather than focusing on the challenge of the ‘how’ that requires an innovative solution, these tools clarify 1) who you are and how to establish the Breakthrough Confidence you need to achieve the specific breakthrough you are targeting, 2) where your team is and how to build the Breakthrough Cooperation required to act upon your breakthrough, 3) the potential of your breakthrough in service to others, and 4) why your goals inspire you to innovate and solve larger questions with purpose and relentless consistency. Although the formulas and methods are all backed with both scientific data and anecdotal case studies, the material is presented to appeal to elite performers in any industry, with relatable examples and entertaining, clear language.
