This Business Professor Rates Strategy of the Dolphin as One of the Best Business Books of All Time!

Lynch and Kordis were indeed more than "slightly ahead of their time" in their exploration of the need to change "the quality and quantity of our awareness of complexity and our skills and comfort level in working with it." The authors' insights are brilliant and so very relevant to the challenges most individuals and organizations faced through the nineties and still grapple with today: going for the elegant outcome; leveraging the wave; breaking set; being on purpose; seeing through the brain's 'time window'; releasing to a higher order; pushing the envelope; shifting in time. It's deep and intelligent, but not intellectual. It's a thoughtful blueprint and practical road map of useful insight.

Your Dolphin High-Performance Business Brain, the book

These Readers of Your Dolphin High-Performance Business Brain Say:

I like the author's disciplined & yet artful blending of cognitive sciences, psychology, physics, sociology, & business strategy in his writings. On hindsight, I realised that many of his provocative ideas were far ahead of the mass market business reading material. I strongly recommend reading the author's brilliant thoughtwares, starting with Your Dolphin High Performance Business Brain.

This work is truly more than 'world class'—it's in a class by itself: the most powerful book you will ever read.

Dr. Thomas E. MacKenzie
The Plymouth-Canton Educational Park, Canton, MI

When initially published in the mid-1980s, Dudley Lynch's Your High-Performance Business Brain (out of print) was considered one of those rare, readable early-on books capable of forging connections between the burgeoning cognitive sciences and the practices of business.

Many readers (including members of MacMillan's Business Book Club) perused its pages at about the same time they were taking their fledging steps into personal computing.

Back then, most PCs were based either on Intel's 8088 or 80286 central processing chip. At best, their owners had a mere 29,000 transistors—switches—to play with.

By the mid-1990s, Intel's best chips had more than three million transistors each. And with the arrival of each new computer generation since then, this number has grown explosively. With each new generation of chips, new ways to apply new knowledge of how the human "central processing unit"—the brain—works to the challenges of an emerging global business environment have appeared.

In this extensive revision of his original work, Dudley again goes nautical. He ties his ideas on the business brain to his (and co-author Paul L. Kordis’s) writings and models on business and change—that is, to “the dolphin strategy,” as it has come to be known in many parts of the international business world.

The outcome is a business book for the new century and the new millennium, with dozens of new graphics and charts, an inviting new "browse-able" format, and a wealth of new quotes and examples. It explains as never before the intimate, powerful connections between good business thinking and good business results.
