In his three brilliant CREATE stories you will find out why we: 

  • should spend more time understanding the problem before designing the solution 
  • are more likely to do nothing than the sensible, innovative or imaginative thing
  • Had better get clever about what we measure
  • should scrap the senseless “9 to 5”
