About the Book

Hyperthinking is predicated on the assumption that the single most important skill required to help you and your organization thrive in the age of perpetual change, digital communications and networks is the mind-set of individuals. This includes your values, your ability to learn and ability to adapt to change. After 14 years of experience with leading global companies, author Philip Weiss has developed an approach that pulls together the ingredients needed for the modern executive to both adapt and thrive in this new age. The Hyperthinking model has been developed and tested on teams, clients and the author‘s networks with great success. The book explains how Hyperthinking can apply to different facets of our lives, starting from our personal experience and our role in society and shows how to adapt better to the new business world. Hyperthinking is a set of values and tools that, used in combination, enable individuals to embrace change develop their creativity and effectively engage in the digital age. It has been tested by a variety of business executives and helped them to understand change, as well as overcome fear or resistance to technology. Philip Weiss offers the perfect antidote to information overload; a wonderful blueprint for personal and organizational innovation; and a set of perspectives to help us all make sense of a fast-changing business environment. Read it and start Hyperthinking!

Review :
’Networks don’t just change the way we interact with each other; they change the way we think, we learn and how we make decisions. Philip Weiss’ HyperThinking captures the essence of these changes convincingly and provides you with a clear route to the thinking processes you will need to survive and thrive in this radically new and fast-changing business environment. Thomas Power, CEO and founder Ecademy ’Shifting your thinking patterns is the key to embracing change. HyperThinking is the kind of book you should read when you are in the middle of change, of a conflict, when you're managing a difficult project, when you just changed jobs, when you had your first child, when you just retired. It's a book about the way we think, or rather the way we think we think, and what this means for the rest of our lives. What this book taught me is that we have to live in a world where we cannot rely on traditional thinking patterns - these must be continuously challenged if we want to adapt to the ever-changing environment we live in. This is called hyperthinking, and it is giving people who want to make an impact on the world we live in a competitive edge. Some are natural-born hyperthinkers, others will have to learn it the hard way. This book will give you a headstart and will provide for an enjoyable and thought-provoking read. I'm proud to be a hyperthinker. Soon, you will feel the same way too.’ Aurelie Valtat, Digital Communications Manager, European Council ’HyperThinking reminds us that we live in a constant flux of ideas and events, propelled along by the economics, technology and politics of our time. But Phil Weiss takes us beyond Heraclitus as he explores the tools for navigating the ever-changing river. By embracing the four modes of hyperthinking, everyone can move beyond convention and the fear of failure, and flex their thinking-muscles for innovative outcomes. In spite of the proven results over 100 years of the Montessoris and Steiners and Neil
