Atlanta, GA, November 26, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Tune in to insightful and unrivaled interviews with authors of leading business books on the StrategyDriven Podcast. Unlike typical author interviews, Nathan Ives goes beyond the written word directly to the day-to-day application of principles readers can immediately implement in their businesses. Find out how Gregory Berns, author of Iconoclast: A Neuroscientist Reveals How to Think Differently, responds to questions Nathan asks about what makes these unique individuals so astoundingly creative and successful. The podcast series is now available at www.StrategyDriven.com. Listen to find out how these game-changers literally “see” the world differently.
In Iconoclast: A Neuroscientist Reveals How to Think Differently (Harvard Business Press; October 1, 2008; $29.95), leading neuroscientist and Emory University professor Dr. Gregory Berns provides biological evidence explaining how individuals he calls “iconoclasts” shatter conventional thinking and do what others say can’t be done. Based on groundbreaking research on how the brain determines how people feel, think, and behave, Berns shows that the iconoclast’s brain is unique in three distinct ways: perception (how they interpret what they see), fear (how they overcome fear of uncertainty and public ridicule), and social intelligence (how they connect with others to sell their ideas). He then offers practical strategies and tips readers can use to rewire their brain’s circuitry. Whether hoping to dream up more of one’s own innovations, or looking to hire and manage iconoclasts in a business, Iconoclast is the essential guidebook for anyone who wants to stop “following the herd” and start forging new paths to success.
Nathan only selects titles that meet a stringent set of StrategyDriven requirements. First, the title must be aligned with the StrategyDriven mission of delivering best-practice solutions to small- and medium-sized businesses, including decision-making, leadership, management, and organizational performance. Secondly, the authors must be highly respected in their field of study.
StrategyDriven author interviews are uniquely different than the average book review. The primary difference, these podcasts are not simply book reviews or summaries. Nathan reads each book prior to the interview and questions the author for a deeper understanding of the important strategies discussed in the book and probes for examples of real-world implementation of those strategies. As a result, listeners get more information, including, author advice not contained within the book; offering additional value listeners can incorporate into their business model. Additionally, StrategyDriven interview articles contain quick links to supplementary materials provided by the author.
