In Praise of The Idea Accelerator:
I have been in Tokyo this week and read your book on the way home. Congratulations, it is an easy read and I will be purchasing 10 copies for my direct team for Christmas!
My personal favourites are The Competitors Next 12 months, The power of two in half the time and The Richard Branson Boost.

I just brought and read your Idea Accelerator book. I picked it up at the Airport in Auckland and read it on a flight to Sydney. During the next couple of days I quietly applied a couple of your techniques in conversations with my colleagues. Even in such an ad-hoc setting they produced surprising results.
I can’t wait to apply your techniques in a more structures setting.
Excellent book.
