How can we know which skills will be required to succeed? In Five Minds for the Future bestselling author Howard Gardner shows how we will each need to master "five minds" that the fast - paced future will demand: The disciplined mind to learn at least one profession as well as the major thinking (science math history etc.) behind it The synthesizing mind to organize the massive amounts of information and communicate effectively to others The creating mind to revel in unasked questions - and uncover new phenomena and insightful apt answers The respectful mind to appreciate the differences between human beings - and understand and work with all persons The ethical mind to fulfill one's responsibilities as both a worker and a citizen Without these "minds " we risk being overwhelmed by information unable to succeed in the workplace and incapable of the judgment needed to thrive both personally and professionally. Complete with a substantial new introduction Five Minds for the Future provides valuable tools for those looking ahead to the next generation of leaders - and for all of us striving to excel in a complex world.
