I lead a double life. For more than ten years now I have worked in the telecommunications industry as an instructional and graphic designer. At the same time I am also a professional actor, set designer and stage director with a college degree in Theater Performance with over 150 productions to my credit.

When I graduated from college I had a hard time finding theater jobs and so I started interviewing in the business sector. For many years I was surrounded by colleagues with MBA and Computer Science degrees, and embarrased to admit to anyone that my degree was in Theater.

Over the years I have become one of the most sought after resources for any project we do. Why? Because I don’t think like any of the business people I know. I feel have an easier time problem solving than many of my colleages, I tend to think wholistically. I remind people on a daily basis to remember that “how” we communicate an idea is just as important as the idea itself.

Just wanted to say, I think it’s great that you’re using this book. We need more thinking like this in the business world.

Check out two other books: “Caffeine for the Creative Mind: 250 Exercises to Wake Up Your Brain,” and “Caffeine for the Creative Team: 200 Exercises to Inspire Group Innovation.” Both books are by Stefan Mumaw.
