Meetings Are A Skill You Can Master, And Steve Jobs Taught Me How
This is our second excerpt from Insanely Simple: The Obsession That Drives Apple’s Success by Ken Segall, a close collaborator with Jobs for over a decade. To read the first, on how the iMac was almost called the MacMan, go here . Apple encourages big thinking but small everything else. That is, if you feel the urge to speak or act in a manner reminiscent of anything you learned in a big company, it’s best that you do that in the privacy of your own home. Meeting size is a good example.
Introduction Our research was done in the Gynaecology & Maternity Department of Hillerød Hospital. The design concept, Baby Book, is a guide to - and a record of - the pregnancy journey, pulling together many of the different experiences of both pregnancy and delivery into one coherent process. The mother can gather all documents, both medical and personal, from the pregnancy period in one place, whilst staying informed about specific stages within the process.

IDEO: Big Innovation Lives Right on the Edge of Ridiculous Ideas
Imagine for a second if you could somehow wrap up the creative chaos of a kindergartner’s life and apply it at work. You’d go on field trips, make stuff, hatch crazy ideas, and be awed by the world on a daily basis. Sound ridiculous?

P sychologists tell us that as we age, we become self-conscious in classroom and other public settings, and quietly begin to suppress our playful tendencies for fear of being childish or breaking with social norms. Creativity requires that we fight against this trajectory.At IDEO, being playful is almost an obsession.

And that can promote social and economic change on a huge scale.

Until I was 11, I didn't know I could only see in shades of grey. I thought I could see colours but that I was confusing them. When I was diagnosed with achromatopsia [a rare vision disorder], it was a bit of a shock but at least we knew what was wrong.
