  <body>I like Dan Pink's style... he is clearly intelligent, and has decided to approach the world with an optimistic realism. My kind of guy.</body>

    <body><![CDATA[Pink provides a decently argued rationale for expanding one's right-brain thinking, and various ways for going about that development. He stresses not to be all right-brained, or all left-brained, but that our society has rewarded left-brain thinking, leaving our right-brain largely under-developed. As the world turns, it would seem the synthesis of the &quot;whole new mind,&quot; is what the job market now needs. Otherwise, your job is going to be outsourced or obsolete entirely. <br/><br/>Furthermore, Pink's prescription easily extends beyond career advice, to life guidance. He discusses the importance of joy, humor, play and empathy.<br/><br/>This book definitely falls into that self-help-feel-goodie-wish-I-were-just-reading-Anne-Lamott category, for business and career development concepts. I have also read Pink's, The Adventures of Johnny Bunko- it is very similar. Both are quick reads and very empowering.]]></body>
