DIFFERENT DIFFERENCES from Fear & Flight to Use & Benefit: DIFFERENCES CREATE

If Jesus Christ and the Buddha had graduate degrees in Sociology, Management, Economics and Social Welfare, plus guest appearances with the late comedian Carlin--THIS is the book they would have written--one could say, tongue in cheek. This book tackles WHAT ARE WE TO DO WHEN WE AND ALL AROUND US ARE DROWNING IN DIFFERENCES CONFLICTING? If you are parent raising a kid, managers hiring for positions, tech investor-founders wanting to last beyond current hype waves, professors sure your latest magnitude-less "effect" will never change anything in the slightest way--THIS BOOK addresses your realities and perhaps, to the degree you are highly self conscious, your biggest concerns.The method that produced this book is in several of the 127 prior books by this author--Herman Hesse' Glass Bead Game--profound highly polished "diamond" ideas applied in various clumps and sequences to contemporary challenges, failings, opportunities, and possible futures In this case--applied to DIFFERENCES, more especially DIFFERENT KINDS of DIFFERENCES--that flood us and mock even the highest skill and status of the "top" "elites" and "professions" and "bodies of knowledge"--tidbits in floods, flotsam on oceans of change and multi-scale forces out of control. The coward and lazy ones SHRINK their world to some pure "right" religions, optimizing of shareholder value vicious personal "rise" above the income-boats-sexbombs of nearby others. The caring more confident open ones--tried graduate degrees and highly bold non-profit and high tech ventures--but the all sank in the flood of diverse differences rising around them. WHAT WILL WORK WELL? This book while not so arrogant as to claim it is THE answer, does claim to be A GOOD BIT of the answer that finally gets devised and works well.USES OF THIS BOOK--from actual past cases as the manuscript versions were used in seminars and with corporate clients in the US, EU, and East Asia (mostly Japan/China):1) A GUIDEBOOK TO EXPANDING ONE'S SELF parents can give kids heading to college, execs can give to capable ones not quite deep and tolerant enough to promote to the top, professors can give before or after thesis or term papers assigned to get beyond otherwise shallow student copy cat thinking or web AI steals. 2) A REFRESHING REALISM DEMOLISHING "BEAUTIFUL" USELESS SOLUTION IDEAS by Robert Frank, Rawls" theory of justice, and Chandler's cake cut first slice role separation theory from Rawls--selling you and me appealing pure ideas with not the slightest path or hope or force for implementation by anyone at any time--while PAID FOR in academia, waste your time and mine, not to mention the cost of buying their books 3) THE GLOBAL VARIETY OF DIFFERENCES APPLIED TO NEUROTIC-LY NARROW U.S.A. THINKERS AND THINKINGS--the pity of all American written books about America is none of them know the world and all of them, drenched in the very forces ruining the USA, propose only solutions that perpetuate and deepen USA problems. If you are too lazy to master achievements by Nordic EU, Germany, China, Japan, etc.--why should we listen to you repeating what 10,000 USA experts and professors and newsmedia have already said? THIS BOOK seeks bits of solution from all of history and the globe to sequence, fuse, blend, alternate to HANDLE FLOODS of different differences around us.4) STEPS NOT "RIGHT" ATTITUDES AND AWARENESSES--Colleges sell kids on collecting right attitudes and right awarenesses--BUT no no no SKILLS piled up in top college grad elites will solve a problem CAUSED by such highly skills top college grad elites! Duh! THIS BOOK steps out of that circular failures machine.5) REMEMBER THE ADVENT--OF THE IPHONE how it fused 4 industries and grew the world's richest firm and simultaneously deployed 5 of 33 creativity sciences while competitors were busy deploying fast half of just one. THIS BOOK gives methods to repeat that.4) Read more
