About this title

Synopsis

In the midst of Thomas Edison's laboratory, a scientific discovery was made that has a direct effect upon your livelihood. Although it took nearly a century to mature, its effects resound through every facet of our personal and professional lives. In an age of uncertainty, one thing is certain: those who don't learn to deal with it will be shackled to a lifetime of low wages. But it doesn't have to be that way.

To be successful today requires a new set of skills, new ways of thinking, and new approaches to problem solving.

The Edison Effect shows you how to be entrepreneurial, self managing and oriented towards life-long learning. You'll discover a new way of approaching challenges. You'll learn:

Strategies for determining what to learn

Four guaranteed steps to problem solving

How to add value to your job

How to use technology, rather than be abused by it

How to sift important information from "noise"

How to learn things quickly

The most important assets to have in an information and service-based economy
