RETAILOBSERVER.COM FEBRUARY 2019 14 V ital Germaine's new, highly anticipated third book, Imagination Will Take You Everywhere, is about connecting to the power of your creativity. A significant portion of the book is based on Germaine's five-plus-year experience and his incredibly difficult learning curve as a performer and team captain for Cirque du Soleil, during which he learned priceless lessons about the mindset of innovation, leadership, company culture, and customer experience. Creativity can open endless doors and help us overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, when it's effectively leveraged and channeled. "I can proudly promise that by the end of this book you will possess at least one actionable tool, probably several, that will promote a more adaptive, expansive, and encompassing mindset that will allow you to reach higher, overcome obstacles, and achieve more on all levels of your life." On purely business and leadership levels, Imagination Will Take You Everywhere will enable you to develop a mental compass that will help you drive innovation and give you a competitive market edge. Today, our business strategies and practices must be able to help us thrive in the fastest-changing climate in recorded history. Differentiation has become the new keyword, and imagination and creativity are key ingredients for standing as unique while maintaining business and social relevance. Many scholars, academics, philosophers, and modern thought leaders have declared that knowledge is power. But Einstein said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution." Beyond the actionable tools and the highly relevant and entertaining Cirque du Soleil anecdotes, you'll learn from insightful interviews with four renowned thought leaders in four very different industries with four very different philosophies: • Tim Sanders – New York Times best-selling author and former executive with Yahoo • Dennis Bonilla – Executive dean, UoPX and former U.S. Navy scientist • Jordan Adler – Bestselling author and MLM millionaire • Randy Sutton – Author, former police detective, and TV news contributor Are you leveraging your inner genius?
