How to know your black swans from your blue ocean

The world of work is full of ideas. Some are useful, shaping what we do and the way we do it - but it can often be hard to sort the wheat from the chaff. When ideas really do break new ground and change our approach, they can help all of us to be better, happier and more productive. The trick is to know which ones offer the most reliable guide, and how they can be used to best effect. By summarising and explaining the best of this thinking, 50 Ideas that Changed the World of Work is both digest and route map, an invaluable guide to navigating the world of work today.
