    Beyond Left Brain vs Right Brain Thinking

    Лучшая цитата из Beyond Left Brain vs Right Brain Thinking

    “

    Creative thinking without strategic grounding leads to brilliant ideas that never see the light of day, while strategic thinking without creativity simply optimizes the status quo. The magic happens when you use creative questioning to expand what's possible and strategic thinking to focus on what's valuable.
