Unless you can name six thoughts you had today that you haven’t had before, you are a habitual thinker 99.9% of the time, just like everyone else. This is because our hard-wired survivor bias drives us to repeat mental patterns and solutions that seemed sensible in the past, and that provide comfort, social rewards, and a stable identity. This means that our thinking follows a Six Sigma distribution and that only a tiny fraction of our daily thoughts are truly novel and free, which prevents us from reaching the groundbreaking solutions we need to adapt to a fast-changing world. But in this book, Andreas Moosdorf guides you to perceive your own habitual thinking more clearly and explore the vast, untapped potential of your own mind. Through a wealth of exercises, readers will rediscover forgotten resources, perspectives, and choices, and be empowered to take back the wheel in their own work and lives.
Ditch your mental maps, rediscover the seven sigma of your thinking, and dive into a forgotten world of variability, productivity and deeper satisfaction with the Seven Sigma Mindset.
Andreas Moosdorf is a management professor, mindset coach and author. He teaches free thinking and innovation to individuals, business schools, organisations and through public speaking. Andreas has a PhD in International Business and extensive training in coaching, mental health and Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Prior to becoming a professor, he spent ten years as a Six Sigma consultant and Associate Principal at McKinsey & Company, and as a Director at Amazon.
