Bill Taylor has defined parameters for innovation that are relevant and actionable whether your goal is to grow a business or cure a disease." -- DEBORAH W. BROOKS , Co-Founder and Executive Vice Chairman, The Michael J. Fox Foundation "Bill Taylor is back--and he's better than ever!

His book inspires and equips us to accept that challenge." -- SANDRA L. FENWICK , President and CEO of Boston Children's Hospital "I have followed Bill Taylor since the early days of Fast Company , and have used some of his ideas myself in the turnaround of Hudson's Bay Company. I'm a strong believer!" -- BONNIE BROOKS , Chief Adventurer and Vice Chairman of Hudson's Bay Company " Simply Brilliant is, well, simply brilliant! Bill Taylor empowers us with a set of basic, first-order principles in action--on the virtues of kindness, humility, and empathy--that turbocharge, and often outdo, all of the more complex ideas we teach in business schools. A must read!" -- LEN SCHLESINGER , professor at Harvard Business School and President Emeritus at Babson College "The 21st-century workplace requires that leaders at all levels become both artists and entrepreneurs. Simply Brilliant highlights the power of this creative mix in all kinds of organizations and all sorts of fields.

Synopsis
Cofounder of Fast Company magazine and bestselling author of Mavericks at Work and Practically Radical shows how true business innovation can spring from the unlikeliest places. Far away from Silicon Valley, in familiar, traditional, even unglamorous fields, ordinary people are unleashing extraordinary advances that amaze customers, energize employees, and create huge economic value. Their secret? They understand that the work of inventing the future doesn't just belong to geeks designing mobile apps and virtual-reality headsets, or to social-media entrepreneurs hoping to launch the next Facebook. Some of today's most compelling organizations are doing brilliant things in simple settings such as retail banks, office cleaning companies, department stores, small hospitals, and auto dealerships. William C. Taylor, cofounder of Fast Company and best-selling author of Practically Radical , traveled thousands of miles to visit these hotbeds of simple brilliance and unearth the principles and practices behind their success. He offers fascinating case studies and powerful lessons that you can apply to do ordinary things in extraordinary ways, regardless of your industry or profession. Consider, for instance, how... -Miami Beach's dazzling 1111 Lincoln Road reimagined the humble parking garage as a high-profile public space that hosts weddings, yoga classes, and celebrity gatherings. -USAA, the financial-services giant that provides soldiers and their families with insurance and banking products, inspires frontline employees to deliver legendary service by immersing them in military culture. -Pal's Sudden Service, a fast-food chain with a cult following, serves up burgers and fries with such speed and accuracy that companies from other industries pay to learn from its astonishing discipline. -Lincoln Electric, a manufacturer based in Euclid, Ohio, dominates its ultracompetitive markets with a fierce devotion to quality and productivity. But the key to its prosperity is a share-the-wealth model that gives everybody a sense of security and a piece of the action. It has maintained a strict no-layoff pledge since 1958. As Taylor writes: "The story of this book, its message for leaders who aim to do something important and build something great, is both simple and subversive: In a time of wrenching disruptions and exhilarating advances, of unrelenting turmoil and unlimited promise, the future is open to everybody. The thrill of breakthrough creativity and breakaway performance . . . can be summoned in all sorts of industries and all walks of life, if leaders can reimagine what's possible in their fields."
