Everything Connects is the second book I have read by Faisal Hoque, and one thing that excels him is the vision he has about business and life itself.
The business world has changed a lot over the years, mostly due to the fourth industrial revolution and, of course, COVID, Because of that, humans need to change and adapt in that matter in order to succeed in life, It's a wellwritten book that describes with precision and several examples from successful businessmen how to achieve longterm results in everything you do,
I recommend this book to people like myself who have some knowledge about the subject and want to improve their leading capabilities, I'm someone who realized a link the between mindfulness and innovation somewhat organically during my corporate innovation career several years ago, After reading Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth, I remember saying to myself, "Someone should write a similar book for business leaders, " Everything Connects is about as close to this concept as anything I've read to date, It's beautifully written, wellresearched, and presented in a clear and thoughtprovoking manner,
With each passing day, more and more leaders are realizing that innovation simply isn't a processoriented task, It takes creative thinking and creative leadership to not only come up with an idea, but to shepherd ideas through to commercialization, Everything Connects brings this concept to life and illustrates why it's so critical to be authentic and to create the space for one to be thoughtful students of our environment.
Don't
misinterpret this to mean this is a fluffy, spiritual book, Quite the contrary this book uses real world case studies that help bridge the gap between theory and practice,
I highly recommend this book especially if you've grown tired of reading so many processladen, "how to do innovation" types of book, This will stretch your view and inspire you to create the conditions for creativity and innovation to thrive in your organization,
Everything Connects: Cultivating Mindfulness, Creativity, and Innovation for LongTerm Value by Faisal Hoque and Drake Baer is a guide for businesses on how to ride the waves of business ups and down by understanding the connectedness of everything.
The book is broken up into four parts:
Understanding who you are and when you are Using this knowledge, learning how to grow in the now How to sustain growth longterm and establish roots and being flexible and durable.
This is an interesting perspective of a business advisor, but it makes a lot of sense as it takes the humannessI, e. creativity and impulsivity of humans into account well, A mustread for business planners, Everything Connects
How to Transform and Lead in the Age of Creativity, Innovation, and Sustainability

McGrawHill Professional
Everything Connects examines changing the behaviour of leaders, through finding holistic solutions to problems in leaders lives and in the organisations they work in.
It does use one particular strategy, rather draws on different disciplines of organisational theory, management theory, neuroscience, psychology, spirituality and selfimprovement, believing that everything it connected, thus a multi discipline approach is required.
It is written in three parts, Firstly discovering when, who, and how you are, thus allowing us to gain a better understanding of ourselves, Second part examines the personal experiences, cultures while applying it to innovations and leading, The final part looks at values, decisions and finding ideas,
Drake and Faisal have combined their understanding of business and psychology for this book,
Everything Connects contains research to support their various ideas and theories, and allow the modern businessperson to find balance amongst ideas on innovation and sustainability, leadership and motivation.
While it is an interesting read, I felt they have not considered all the elements that contribute to the modern leader, and their slant to spirituality is biases, or perhaps just disagrees with mine.
Not that I am disconnecting spirituality as a contributing factor, just their particular brand,
Overall, there are elements and ideas that the modern leader will take from this book, to place into action in their own lives,
a Management book added a little bit of philosophy,
Nothing special,
just finished one more management book,
