In this book I introduce several unique concepts, including Value-Driven Thinking™, The Eight States of the Innovative Mind™, and STEP™ Value-Creation Methodology. The Root Cause of Innovation: How Value-Driven Thinking Changes Everything was targeted for publication in early 2011, but put on hold because of my most recent book…

    I have written a book about “pure innovation,” which focuses on personal and societal issues, rather than a typically exclusive focus on technology and business. In this book I introduce several unique concepts, including Value-Driven Thinking™, The Eight States of the Innovative Mind™, and STEP™ Value-Creation Methodology. The Root Cause of Innovation: How Value-Driven Thinking Changes Everything was targeted for publication in early 2011, but put on hold because of my most recent book project (related to Cubie™). The book focuses on providing innovative approaches to creating value and solving problems in our personal lives, in our careers, as well as in society around us, discussing how innovation applies to a wide range of topics: our relationships, parenting, house & home, politics, education, civility, humor, art, psychology, and many other themes.

    I'm a proud "Platinum Member" of IvyLife -- the all-Ivy League network. Founded by Chris Colvin in New York City. One of the best networking experiences I've ever had. They've recently enhanced their structure by adding "Affiliate Member" opportunities for those who are alumni of the top non-Ivy schools around the world who would still like to participate in a network of extraordinary, brilliant, creative, and successful professionals.
