Description - The Mosaic Principle by Nick Lovegrove
The world is an increasingly interconnected place; in work as in life, we need a broad range of experiences in order to widen our knowledge, perform our best and feel most fulfilled. But in education and business there is the growing feeling that we are being led down a rabbit hole of narrow expertise. From an early age, we are forced to limit our own horizons by studying fewer and fewer subjects, and then shuttled into niche positions at work that don't make use of our wider talents. Not only personally unfulfilling, blinkered specialisation and social bubbles can be dangerous: just look at the financial 'rocket scientists' and their bosses who gave us the economic crisis.
In The Mosaic Principle, Nick Lovegrove shows how we can develop multiple skills and branch beyond a limited social sphere, to the benefit of all. Drawing on more than three decades of personal experience in working across sectors, and examining the inspiring stories of extraordinary people, historical and contemporary, Lovegrove sets out the six dimensions of the successful generalist: Moral Compass, Intellectual Thread, Transferrable Skills, Extended Network, Contextual Intelligence and Prepared Mind. These six skills will provide the ways and means for taking unorthodox steps to encourage us to live broader, better lives.
