New solutions and opportunities

I read a lot of business books. I mean a LOT. I even write one occasionally. What Stephen Joyce has done with this book is quite extraordinary. It's rare that we discover a TRULY new way of looking at how the world works. That's exactly what this book does. Joyce practically compels you see and act on new solutions and opportunities. I really think that this is one of the best and most useful books that I've read in a very long time. I highly recommend it.

Get hooked on CQ

Steve Joyce shares a valuable and powerful story to get us hooked on the value of Collaborative Intelligence (CQ). Teaching an anthill to fetch reveals that CQ comes from reciprocal service -- to a greater good and from the greater good to us. CQ is an aptitude we possess without realizing it. We already know most of what we need to know in order to become a human anthill -- a team that serves life by adapting to life conditions no matter what the challenge might be. What I like about this book is that, like the closest friend, Steve walks beside us telling us stories, drawing images, cracking jokes and pointing out the evidence that human intelligence can deliver so much more than we allow it. For someone like me, who believes that individual human intelligence can be meshed into global intelligence Steve's observations are a welcome guide to the learning journey.
