Highlights of Daniel Pink's book
A whole new mind: why right-brainers will rule the future

Daniel H. Pink, speaker at the 2007 National Art Education Association conference, has lectured to corporations, associations and universities around the world on economic transformation and business strategy.

In A Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future he introduces the Conceptual Age and the six senses that will be define the age.

"We have progressed from a society of farmers to a society of factory workers to a society of knowledge workers. And now we are progressing to a society of creators and empathizers, of pattern recognizers and meaning makers in the Conceptual Age."

Successful companies in the future will be about "education of the heart" and business will be in the "art business" An MFA will be the degree in demand over the MBA. Key corporations will be seeking individuals with a whole new mind.

 

Six senses Daniel Pink says will define the Conceptual Age:

  • Design
  • Story
  • Symphony
  • Empathy
  • Play
  • Meaning
