The Way of Nowhere

23rd July 2008, Loma-Ann Marks

The Way of Nowhere is a beautiful piece of change management inspiration. Comprising of eight key questions to release your creative potential, this ingenious amalgamation of Eastern philosophies, life coaching techniques and creative thinking is designed (in a gorgeous format I might add), to walk you through a journey of re-awakening and self-discovery.

The Way of Nowhere

The inspiration-innovation wheel maps out key areas to revive a flagging mind, and whilst explanations on how to “hold” a key question on your “sacred mountain” during a “vision quest” might terrify anyone not of a flip flop and dreadlock persuasion, stick with it.  It may be wordy, it may seem at times confusing, but this gem of a book from Nowhere founders Nick Udall and Nic Turner gives us the chance to try techniques that the consultancy has used for clients such as Roche, Dell, BP and Nokia.
The book is in two halves; read one way to release your creative potential, the other for our potential if you are an organisation - or just read upside down if it’s all too much.

Ideal for businesses seeking to innovate further, creatives needing a brain boost, teachers looking for inspiration and pretty much everyone else wanting an enhancedW life this a must-read this Summer.
See you on the Sacred Mountain.
