INNOVATION YOU reveals the world-renowned "Dean of Innovation" Jeff DeGraff's unique four-step program to bolster your ingenuity and remake your life. From forging ahead in a new career to losing weight to finally pursuing that long-held dream, DeGraff's strategies are effective and easy to follow. Inside you will learn to:

RETHINK INNOVATION: New ways to think outside the proverbial box, and to stimulate your new perspective.
RETHINK YOUR APPROACH: Use the Competing Values Framework to identify your natural innovation profile - do you compete, collaborate, create, or control? - and then deliberately draw from the other styles to augment your usual tactics.
RETHINK YOUR METHODS: Put your reinvention plan in motion - set specific, realistic, and meaningful targets, cultivate relationships with relevant mentors and experts, and try alternate methods to achieve your goals.
RETHINK THE JOURNEY: Understand that innovation is a process and that progress comes in cycles rather than a quick straight line. Accept uncertainty, question assumptions, and acknowledge areas where you can improve.

Innovation You: Creating Growth

Manifesto for ChangeThis.com has been published!

"There are four fundamental forces that pursue competing values and pull us and all the constituents in our situations in different directions: Collaborate, Create, Compete and Control. These forces drive or thwart growth in dyadic oppositions: Collaborate vs. Compete and Create vs. Control. The paradox of growth is that it is born from the tension and constructive conflict of these opposing forces and their agents."
