Review

"...I found the book easy to read and understand, full of commonsense and curiously compelling..." (City to Cities,August/September 2002)

"...it's one of those rare books that could make a radicaldifference to the way you work and see the world, whilst being agenuine source of pleasure to read..." (Research Magazine,September 2002)

From the Inside Flap

What if you could spot what's killing creativity in your organization right now?

What if you could stop yourself squashing ideas and start growing them instead?

What if you could help everyone at work to be creative?

What if you stopped talking about how important creativity is and started to take practical steps to make it happen.

But most of all....

What if there was a step-by-step guide that showed you exactly how to do it?

Instinctively we all know that creativity at work is important, but for many of us it feels either difficult or intimidating.

Sticky Wisdom delivers powerful insights that take creativity out of the hands of 'creative people' and puts it back where it belongs, with all of us. It breaks creativity out into six practical behaviours and shows how every one of us - not just the wacky geniuses - is packed with creative potential. We can start a creative revolution by adopting six behaviours:
Freshness
Greenhousing
Realness
Momentum
Signalling
Courage

These are the behaviours you can identify in highly creative and high-performing teams. These are the behaviours that you can start applying today to revolutionize your life.

Suddenly creativity isn't such a mystery. Sticky Wisdom makes it easy to talk about, easy to practise and easy to remember. Above all, it makes it easy to get on and do!

    This has been on the top of my titles for any Innovator since I took a WhatIf workshop. I'm not sure why it has not been updated and reprinted though.
    Theory, techniques and tons of case studies from real companies makes it an interesting reading experience that sticks well beyond this book.
  • Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2015
    Having worked with ?What IF! some years ago and in all honesty at the time I was not that impressed I was reluctant to purchase this book. But based on a review by my coach I was impressed with some of the way the theories and processes were presented.
    If you work in the creative industry you believe as its your job to come up with new ways of looking at things you are good at it, but in all honesty you always take the path of least resistance.
    This book did open up ways of taking a new stance on your daily tasks and was of great benefit to me and my team.

    I really enjoyed this book and found it truly fascinating. The information conveyed was indeed very "sticky", and it certainly stuck to me. Great resource and very imaginative.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable and practical reading
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 20, 2008
    If you are looking for a theoretical or academic book on innovation, this is NOT the book for you. If you are looking for a practical book, full of ideas - read on!

    This book is well written and provides a lot of really useful and practical insights into the innovation process in real life. The one thing that shines through is the fact that this book is written by practitioners. The 6 main threads that run through the text come from the sharp end of being in the innovation business. As such, they have a certain "common sense" feel to them and I recognise many of them from my own working experience. The section on "Courage", in particular, I found very thought provoking. The examples used throughout the book help bring the material to life and help ground the advice in the real world.

    Very easy to read and compelling. I read it over a weekend. Highly recommended for anyone interested in innovation.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Sticky Wisdom - Aptly Titled
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 22, 2009
    This book is a must for the radical free thinking would be entrepreneur or business manager who wants to be more creative. It will challenge a lot of your day to day work place attitudes and behaviour patterns. It will fly in the face of conventional business practice and beghavioural models. It will make you see life differently - and you will take a lot of the ideas out of the work situation all together. It is a book for those who dare to be different but expect that not everybody will get it. Some of your colleagues will need some convincing that these unconventional ideas will work - but they will. Just try it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Tools to begin a creative revolution
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 21, 2010
    Since I bought the book about three months ago I've read it a couple of times - certain parts several times.

    The book both gives you the tools to re-create a new creative vision for your company or department and the tools to use in everyday life when needing to develop an idea here and now.

    One could discuss the line between a hand book and a pure commercial for their own company, and some of the anecdotes certainly are more promotional than illustrative. But that doesn't change the fact that this is a very good place to begin if you could use some help to develop a creative revolution at work!

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 25, 2020
    A good book that will probably give you a few ideas on how to create a better environment for creativity or innovation. A quick and easy read and not too complicated, however, I guess most of this you probably know, but they organise it well and have provided some good and realistic examples.
