I really liked a lot of the ideas laid out in this book despite their obvious lack of environmental consideration(you'd go through a lot of paper doing this). The book could have been about half the length and still gotten the idea across. I felt a little beaten over the head by the problem solving "tools" by the end of it. That said, these ideas have very interesting collaborative potential that I've already tried out for a few projects with mixed success. Being the geeky hippy that I am I chos...more
The initial concept was somewhat interesting, if not expensive (you'd go through piles of post-its to use this method, but if it works and you have the budget for it, that would be a valuable expense). However, many of the methods seemed very complicated.

A must-read book on decision making and problem solving, which are two critical competencies in business life.
Small but so powerful. Techniques galore. Impress your friends at parties (and meetings).
I really enjoyed this book and the ideas it gave me. It really added some nice tools to my toolbox for my creative process. I find it helps me develop focus or find a new way of looking at a problem, and I find the process great for brainstorming ideas as well.

I use Post-it (R) notes frequently to outline my ebooks, books, and other documentation so I thought this would help me refine the process. I also teach using Post-it (R) notes in my writing seminars. The material has me stumped in many sections.
This is a resource book that you only want to read if you can directly apply it to the process you need it with. Everything else in the book needs to left unread.

Super quick read. Nothing mind blowing, but pretty good techniques for brainstorming using the flexibility of post-its.
One of the best problem solving/decision making books written.
