Dan Pink should sound familiar to those in the d-studio. An excerpt from A Whole New Mind was assigned reading, and we’ve talked about him briefly in class. He has a great TED talk about workplace incentives.

This book is a fun read, perfect for anyone at Sauder thinking about what they want to do when they graduate. Its the first business manga, and you’ll zip right through it. Don’t let it fool you, there are some good lessons in here.

1. There is no plan

2. Strengths, not weaknesses

3. It’s not about you

4. Persistence trumps talent

5. Make excellent mistakes

6. Leave an imprint

I’ll leave it up to you to fill in the blanks. Highly recommended.
