'The ability to hold two opposed ideas in your mind can lead to creativity in your life as an individual, an entrepreneur, a reflective practitioner, and a leader. In this uniquely encompassing book, Ryszard Praszkier shows you how to embrace the magic of paradoxical thinking with wonder, joy, and humor. He teaches you how to reveal a paradox of a difficult situation and how to leverage it to innovate in the newly networked environment. The author's extensive scholarship is combined with a surpassing experience in social entrepreneurship and psychotherapy. With many notable cases, this book will change the way you think and achieve. Praszkier will expand your intellectual horizons and spur you to action you had thought impossible.'
