How
to engage and use the prized dolphin mind!
A trilogy of works (plus 3 key assessment tools) to help you “climb
your mind” to new “dolphin strategy” levels of insight,
responsiveness and competence. |
This Business Professor Rates Strategy of the Dolphin as One of the Best Business Books of All Time!
Lynch and Kordis were indeed more than "slightly ahead of their time" in their exploration of the need to change "the quality and quantity of our awareness of complexity and our skills and comfort level in working with it." The authors' insights are brilliant and so very relevant to the challenges most individuals and organizations faced through the nineties and still grapple with today: going for the elegant outcome; leveraging the wave; breaking set; being on purpose; seeing through the brain's 'time window'; releasing to a higher order; pushing the envelope; shifting in time. It's deep and intelligent, but not intellectual. It's a thoughtful blueprint and practical road map of useful insight.

DolphinThink,
the workbook, plus 3 assessments
Give your brain the information it needs, and you can be blown away by what it can figure out for you.
And if that information is coming from the DolphinThink® Workbook and its supporting self assessments, well, that’s the best of all possible worlds to prepare you for where you need to go next.
This powerful array of self-discovery methods takes key insights from the renowned dolphin strategy and enlists them to work in your behalf. These self-inquiry techniques and approaches have been highly praised for inspiring their readers to produce the new outcomes they need in a rapid-change world. How? By showing them how to discover and mobilize the totality that they are (how they organize themselves). And what to do with it next (how they respond to the complicated world around them).
These are some of the ways that DolphinThink can make all the difference in your results and satisfaction: -
Uses 31 principles to look at who you are from an amazing variety of perspectives, some of which have probably never occurred to you.
-
Helps you perform diagnostic "triage" on your current world-view aimed at ferreting out ways that your current beliefs may be sabotaging your change efforts.
-
Helps you answer: What am I alive to do? And what’s my natural “edge” in terms of what the world needs most from me now?
-
Guides you in creating a vision for the future and then tests this vision for realism and viability.
-
Teaches the importance of getting you focused ruthlessly on "the critical 20%" of the activities, resources and initiatives best suited for getting you where you want to go.
-
Helps you grow comfortable with the idea that you may need to make truly radical personal changes to get where you are aiming.
-
Puts you through a crash course in recognizing obstacles that your mind may erect against change and coaches you on how to deal with these roadblocks.
-
Guides you through the Breakthrough Thinking process for making radical discoveries and shifts in your life and career realities.
-
Shows you a powerful alternative to traveling the Grief and Recovery Cycle when you let go of the past.
-
Briefs you on how others can be expected to react to significant personal change in you and shows you how to persuade others that it is okay for you to change,
-
Provides strategies and techniques for helping others make the changes they need to upgrade their own thinking skills.
-
Double-checks your ability to use the Dolphin Strategy—to see the world through a world-view that is the most gifted so far at finding and mobilizing the next right, smart good thing.
122 pages. Two-color cover. Intensive paper-and-pencil exercises with work spaces for keeping track of your conclusions and decisions on nearly every page. Its numerous graphics and illustrations frequently use metaphors based on DolphinThink's nautical theme. To complete all exercises in the DolphinThink Workbook, you also need one copy of each of these BTC instruments: The BrainMap, MindMaker6 and The mCircle Instrument.

Your
Dolphin High-Performance Business Brain, the book When
initially published in the mid-1980s, Dudley Lynch's Your High-Performance
Business Brain (out of print) was considered one of those rare,
readable early-on books capable of forging connections between the burgeoning
cognitive sciences and the practices of business. Many readers (including
members of MacMillan's Business Book Club) perused its pages at about the same
time they were taking their fledging steps into personal computing. Back
then, most PCs were based either on Intel's 8088 or 80286 central processing chip.
At best, their owners had a mere 29,000 transistors—switches—to play
with. By the mid-1990s, Intel's best chips had more than
three million transistors each. And with the arrival of each new computer generation
since then, this number has grown explosively. With each new generation of chips,
new ways to apply new knowledge of how the human "central processing unit"—the
brain—works to the challenges of an emerging global business environment
have appeared. In this extensive revision of his original
work, Dudley again goes nautical. He ties his ideas on the business brain to his
(and co-author Paul L. Kordis’s) writings and models on business and change—that
is, to “the dolphin strategy,” as it has come to be known in many
parts of the international business world. The outcome
is a business book for the new century and the new millennium, with dozens of
new graphics and charts, an inviting new "browse-able" format, and a
wealth of new quotes and examples. It explains as never before the intimate, powerful
connections between good business thinking and good business results. Table
