Description and Reviews From The Publisher: There is a paradox. Throughout the world, companies and organisations are trying to compete in a world of economic and technological change that is moving faster than ever.

Out of Our Minds answers three vital questions for all organisations that have a serious strategic interest in creativity and innovation.
