5 Steps to Success for the Digital Age and Beyond: Studies in the Application of Logical-Mathematical Intelligence (Paperback or Softback)

A healthy economy depends on the society's productive implementation of new technologies and their applications. In contrast, innovation failures have far-reaching devastating consequences on the economy and the society's wellbeing. As the digital transitions face the society with complex challenges and great benefits and risks, a structured approach is needed to maximize success and minimize risk.

The author makes a fundamental contribution with his impactful Synergetic Five-Step Innovation Process. He proposes that a "Logical Gedanken-Modell" defines a perceived ideal solution and mends it into a well-functional system. Subsequently, the Gedanken-Modell and the perceived ideal conflict-free solution must be analyzed by way of "Logical-Mathematical Intelligence". to assure that all variables of an innovation are properly considered to maximize success and prevent failure.

The author explores the intelligences that underly major past inventions and traces the practiced processes with his synergetic five-step approach. He discovers that his five-step approach can be viewed as a natural law that is always present whether the inventor is aware of it or not.

He observes that the inventor's awareness of the five-step approach could have enhanced past inventions' extraordinary potential and could have prevented fatal failures, their catastrophic consequences, and the society's enormous financial loss and the loss of human lives.

The book sheds new light on the risks involved in Columbus courageous voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, confirms Senan Molony's hypothesis about the Titanic's hidden misfortune, and assembles the unfortunate events leading to the extraordinary Chernobyl disaster that has been in the making for more than 20 years.

Schlueter and his student teams applied Logical-Mathematical Intelligence to explain today's traffic flow phenomena and to assess future mass mobility requirements. His vision for opportunities offered by digital technologies enabled him to create ideal conflict-free traffic management systems for freeways and county roads that can facilitate an effective mobility ecosystem.

Dr. Georg Schlueter is a German-born and educated naturalized US citizen with a diverse professional career in California. His expertise draws on years as corporate executive, industry adviser and educator. After earning his degrees in Engineering Physics and Business Administration at the University of Technology in Aachen, Germany, Schlueter joined General Atomics in San Diego, California. He contributed to the development of gas-cooled nuclear reactors with the development of a perfect synergy between fuel-generating and fuel-consuming gas-cooled nuclear power plants. This project was the first of a series of impactful applications of Logical-Mathematical Intelligence toward pioneering process innovation and automation projects for international corporations. As educator, he engages with MBA and DBA students in research projects exploring the opportunities offered by the Digital Age. With his student teams, he applies Logical-Mathematical Intelligence to research and explain unique work process automation opportunities. His digital-enabled process transformations facilitate exceptional improvements in productivity. As an example, Schlueter's vision for opportunities offered by digital technologies enabled him to create ideal conflict-free solutions for the future mass mobility and beyond.
