Your Guide to Delight

This is a book about delight. It introduces the power of delight to create a novel future, not just predict it. Delight is the experience that comes closest to magic, something for which you can’t prepare.

Delight thinking is the ability to surprisingly discover and use or implement something that was unknown before. This book provides a ton of examples of delight thinking in health care and beyond. It shows how to evolve to a world in which we (and in a sense, also companies) don’t get sick anymore.
