都说不能通过一本书的封面来判断书的好坏,不过这次多少有些不同。因为我看了关于这本书的网站,作者的blog,从而我能非常确信,这是一本难得的,关于商务沟通的书。而它所使用的方法,正是我一直在实践的――用简笔画。
这本书的网站上有一个非常棒的flash,页面跳转得特别快,我截取了一些,如果感兴趣,建议直接去查看噢。













网站的右边是关于这本书的相关介绍,我也尝试着翻译了一下。
A bold new way to tackle tough business problems — even if you draw like a second-grader
应对棘手的商业问题的新方法――即便你画得像二年级的小学生
When Herb Kelleher was brainstorming about how to beat the traditional hub-and-spoke airlines, he grabbed a bar napkin and a pen. Three dots to represent Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio. Three arrows to show direct flights. Problem solved, and the picture made it easy to sell Southwest Airlines to investors and customers.
当Herb Kelleher对如何打败传统的轮辐式航线进行头脑风暴时,他抓起一张酒吧的餐巾纸和一枝笔。3个点代表Dallas, Houston,和San Antonio。三个箭头显示直航的飞机。问题解决了,图片很容易地让西南航空的投资者和客户得到了认同。
(小小找到了这张图片,来自西南航空的网站,点这里查看)
Used properly, a humble napkin is more powerful than Excel or Powerpoint. It can help you crystallize your ideas, think outside the box, and communicate more powerfully than any traditional business presentation.
如果使用得当,朴素的餐巾纸甚至比Excel或者PowerPoint还要有力。它能帮忙具体化你的想法,跳出框框思考,比任何传统的商务演示都要更有力量。
Consultant and lecturer Dan Roam argues that everyone is born with a talent for visual thinking, even those who depend mainly on their left-brain analytical skills. The problem is that most of us — especially in the business world — are never encouraged to develop our intrinsic ability to create pictures. Roam teaches business leaders around the world how to look, see, imagine, and show — with immediate results.
Dan Roam,咨询顾问和演讲者,认为每个人天生都会视觉思维。即使是那些主要依靠他们的左脑的分析技巧的人。问题是我们中的大多数――特别是在商业世界――从来没有被鼓励过发展我们天生的绘画本领。Roam在世界范围内教授商业领袖们如何通过直接有效的方式去看,理解,想象和展示。
