Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. 13.34 x 1.91 x 19.05 cm-" If you're stuck at the starting line, you don't need more time or permission. You dont need to wait for a bosss okay or to be told to push the button; you just need to poke. Poke the Box is a manifesto by bestselling author Seth Godin that just might make you uncomfortable. Its a call to action about the initiative youre taking-in your job or in your life. Godin knows that one of our scarcest resources is the spark of initiative in most organizations (and most careers)-the person with the guts to say, I want to start stuff. Poke the Box just may be the kick in the pants you need to shake up your life.-We send our kids to school and obsess about their test scores, their behavior, and their ability to fit in. We post a help wanted ad and look for experience, famous colleges, and a history of avoiding failure. We invest in companies based on how they did last quarter, not on what theyre going to do tomorrow. So why are we surprised when it all falls apart? Our economy is not static, but we act as if it is. Your position in the world is defined by what you instigate, how you provoke, and what you learn from the events you cause. In a world filled with change, thats what mattersyour ability to create and learn from change. Poke the Box is a manifesto about producing something thats scarce, and thus valuable. It demands that you stop waiting for a road map and start drawing one instead. You know how to do this, youve done it before, but along the way, someone talked you out of it. We need your insight and your dreams and your contributions. Hurry." About the Author: Seth Godin has written 12 books all bestsellers that have been translated into more than 30 languages.
