Edward de Bono Bücher

Der Erfinder des Verfahrens des lateralen Denkens bietet einen Leitfaden zur Förderung der Kreativität.

Edward de Bono ist eine weltweit anerkannte Autorität zu den Themen Kreativität und effektives Denken. In seinem Bestseller De Bonos neue Denkschule zeigt er, dass die meisten intelligenten Menschen ihr Potential nicht voll ausschöpfen: Anstelle guter Lösungen hervorzubringen sind sie damit beschäftigt, ihren persönlichen Standpunkt zu verteidigen, so dass sie es gar nicht nötig haben, weiter zu denken. De Bonos neue Denkschule vermittelt Leserinnen und Leser, wie sie stattdessen zahlreichere und bessere Lösungen sowie Ideen finden und Ihre Wahrnehmung schärfen - denn: kein gutes Output ohne gutes Input!

Schuld an den Problemen unserer Welt ist unser Denken. Deshalb müssen wir es verändern. Edward de Bono, einer der wichtigsten Denker unserer Zeit, hat genau hingesehen: Was stimmt nicht mit unserem Denken? Und wie können wir es verbessern? De Bono erklärt seine auf den neuesten Stand gebrachten Denkmethoden. Brillant beschreibt er, wie jeder seine Denkprozesse ändern und damit nicht nur sein Privat- und Berufsleben erheblich verbessern kann, sondern in letzter Konsequenz auch unsere Welt.

Warum scheinen einige Menschen immer neue Ideen zu haben, während andere mit gleicher Intelligenz nie welche entwickeln? Laterales Denken ist Edward de Bonos ursprüngliche Darstellung dessen, was laterales Denken ist, wie es funktioniert und wie man es nutzen kann, um das eigene Potenzial für Denken und Problemlösung zu entwickeln. De Bono argumentiert, dass konventionelles vertikales Denken oft unsere Fähigkeit einschränkt, Probleme zu lösen und neue Ideen zu entwickeln. Er zeigt, dass laterales Denken ein viel einfacherer und natürlicherer Weg ist, um einfache, fundierte und effektive Ideen zu generieren, und bietet Anleitungen, wie man die eigene Fähigkeit zum lateralen Denken entwickeln kann. Laterales Denken ist eine Technik, die jeder lernen und von der jeder profitieren kann.

Don’t chase the market leader, be the market leader. Edward de Bono, the bestselling author of Serious Creativity and inventor of lateral thinking teaches you how to move beyond the baseline of competition and find success with sur/petition. It's simple. If you want to survive in the global marketplace a competitive streak is essential. But what if you want to do more than just survive? In Sur/petition de Bono explains how choosing to run in your own race instead of alongside others will give you the edge over other businesses and creating value monopolies will allow your business to not only survive but become successful. Broken down into 3 sections Sur/petition will explain: 1. Why most fundamental habits of management thinking maybe inadequate and even dangerous for your business 2. The difference between traditional competition and sur/petition 3. The meaning of ‘valufacture’ and how to create value for your business Drawing from his immense experience consulting the top corporations in the world, de Bono shows you how to go 'beyond competition' and create a new winning game.

First published in 1981, this was the first book ever to be written explicitly for the right side of the reader’s brain. Much has been made of the research conducted into the left side of the brain – home to language and logic. The right side works in images, whole patterns and undefined feelings – none of which can be verbalized. This more elusive thinking often functions as what is loosely called ‘intuition’. In Atlas, de Bono shows us how to use the right side. It is an atlas because it is a visual reference of images and illustrations that point the reader in the right direction (literally). For anyone who has ever been told to trust their instinct, or who is concerned with management and decision-making, this book is a de Bono classic.

Letters to Further Thoughts on Lateral Thinking

This book offers a series of problems in thinking that require no special knowledge and no mathematics. The problems are designed to let readers find out about their personal style of thinking, its weaknesses and strengths, and the potential methods that they never use. Being right is not always important - an error can lead to the right decision. A copy of the L-game is inserted in each book for use in the section on strategy.

This is a textbook on wisdom. It provides a presentation of "thinking tools", guidelines and principles. Edward de Bono is the author of "Teach Your Child How to Think", "Water Logic, Parallel Thinking" and "Teach Yourself to Think".

In this book, Edward de Bono lays out a very simple five-stage structure as a framework for thinking. Much of thinking is a matter of directing attention to what matters and this structure does just that.

From confusing manuals to uninterpretable jargon and bureaucratic red-tape, modern life can be highly complicated and frustrating. For many of us it is almost impossible to make sense of. In Simplicity, lateral-thinking guru Edward de Bono shows us how to bring clarity into our increasingly complicated lives. Through his ten rules of simplicity, he encourages us to be creative and break down the complex into manageable and recognisable parts. By making the complicated simple, you will free up time, reduce stress and make better decisions.

Think, don't fight.In today’s world we use an out of date thinking system to navigate our way through modern society, especially when it comes to conflicts and disagreements.Conflicts argues that instead of our age old system of debate we should adopt what de Bono calls a ‘design idiom’ and use lateral thinking to navigate a feud. If two parties think their argument is best, we should be introducing a third party role. De Bono explains how this concept of triangular thinking and map making is the way forward.By highlighting how the current system holds us back and offering practical alternatives De Bono paves the way for a fundamental shift in conflict resolution.

The last millennium has not been a great success. We have advanced in science and technology, but not much in human behaviour. Is it possible that this has been due to poor thinking? Edward de Bono maintains that the thinking of the last millennium has been concerned with WHAT IS. This is the thinking of analysis, criticism and argument. What we have not sufficiently developed is the thinking concerned with WHAT CAN BE. This is thinking that is creative and constructive, and which seeks to solve conflicts and problems by designing a way forward. The emphasis of his proposed new thinking is on design and not judgement.

The internationally bestselling guide to better thinking used by tens of thousands of people - fully revised and updated.

"A practical handbook for parents to use in training their children (ages nine and up) in effective thinking, although adults will surely benefit from the concepts as well."--Library Journal.

This book is based upon 50 interviews with men and women - eg Chris Bonington, Mark McCormack, Terence Conran and Malcolm Forbes - who have been outstandingly successful in a variety of fields. With his usual perceptiveness, Edward de Bono analyses their different paths to success, revealing that underneath their different styles and their greatly different personal qualities are a few characteristics which are common to all successful people. De Bono provides the lessons for anyone seeking success in their lives.

Despite the modern day emphasis on physical appearance, there is an easier way to become a desirable person rather than dieting or buying expensive clothes. Regardless of outer appearance, if people have minds that are fascinating, creative, and exciting—if they are good thinkers—they can be beautiful. The clear, practical instructions in this guide demonstrate how applying lateral and parallel thinking skills to conversation can improve the mind. The greatest impact is made on others through speech, and by learning how to listen, make a point, and maneuver a discussion, anyone can become more imaginative, more engaging, and more beautiful.

The world is full of problems and conflicts. So why can we not solve them? According to Edward de Bono, world thinking cannot solve world problems because world thinking is itself the problem . And this is getting worse: we are so accustomed to readily available information online that we search immediately for the answers rather than thinking about them. Our minds function like trying to drive a car using only one wheel. There's nothing wrong with that one wheel - conventional thinking - but we could all get a lot further if we used all four... De Bono examines why we think the way we do from a historical perspective and uses some of his famous thinking techniques, such as lateral thinking, combined with new ideas to show us how to change the way we think. If we strengthen our ability and raise our thinking level, other areas of our life - both personal and business success - will improve. De Bono is the master of the original big 'concept' book and his enticement to us to use our minds as constructively as possible should appeal to a whole new generation of fans.

People spend vast amounts of money, time and trouble to achieve and maintain beauty, yet despite its undisputed importance few of us devote similar efforts to being interesting. De Bono demonstrates how anyone can acquire this life-enhancing skill.

Anyone can join the positive revolution. All you need is creativity. Historically, revolutions have been negative - defining, overthrowing or destroying an enemy, fuelled by a sense of mission and direction. After victory, however, this energy often races on, causing factionalism and strife among the victors. The positive revolution also has energy and direction, but its opponents are entrenched patterns in thought. Progress, maintains Edward de Bono - whether on a personal or global scale - depends on thinking and behaviour that are positive and constructive. The world today is undergoing dramatic, often violent changes, and human behaviour is frequently shaped by guilt and negativity. To lift this dark cloud and create positive revolution, we need to rely more on humour, a key element in changing perception. In this inspiring book, Edward de Bono demonstrates clearly and simply how we can learn to think and interact constructively, efficiently and with respect for core human values.
