Kiedy pasjonujemy się tym, co robimy, i mamy odpowiednie przygotowanie, aby robić to dobrze, jesteśmy w naszym Elemencie, w tym wspaniałym stanie, w którym pracujemy bez zmęczenia i z wielką kreatywnością. Szkoły i firmy powinny pomóc nam wszystkim znaleźć nasz Element dla lepszego rozwoju w przyszłości. Świat zmienia się w zawrotnym tempie. Niemożliwe jest przewidzenie, jak będziemy żyć w przyszłości: jedyne, co wiemy, to że potrzebna będzie ogromna wyobraźnia i kreatywność, aby się przekształcić i stawić czoła nowym wyzwaniom. Odkrycie Elementu to odzyskanie zdumiewających zdolności w sobie, a jego rozwój radykalnie zmieni nie tylko twoje środowisko pracy, ale także twoje relacje i, ostatecznie, twoje życie.

Jest pewien paradoks: większość dzieci ma wspaniałą i twórczą wyobraźnię. Większość dorosłych uważa, że nie ma. Co się z nimi dzieje, kiedy dorastają? Dlaczego tak wielu dorosłych myśli, że sami nie są kreatywni (ani zbytnio inteligentni), podczas gdy inni ludzie są? Jaki jest prawdziwy problem i co można z nim zrobić? W tej przełomowej i inspirującej książce Ken Robinson pokazuje, że wszyscy jesteśmy kreatywni. Przekonuje, że na całym świecie organizacje próbują naprawić problem, którego źródłem są szkoły i uniwersytety. Wielu ludzi kończy edukację nie mając pojęcia, jakie są ich prawdziwe twórcze zdolności. Wszyscy mamy wielkie naturalne zdolności, jednakże wszyscy mamy je na swój sposób. W potężny i oryginalny sposób autor mówi, dlaczego tak jest i co organizacje i jednostki mogą natychmiast zrobić, żeby wydobyć swoje kreatywne talenty.

"Imagination and creativity are at the root of every uniquely human achievement and those achievements have brought us to this present moment. We are now the largest population in human history: seven and half billion people, rising to nine billion by 2050. Our technologies are evolving exponentially, but spiritually and emotionally, we're not keeping pace. Our appetites are straining the earth's capacity to sustain us, and our attempts to force it to do so are fuelling a holocaust of other species. Communities across the globe are still locked in ancient cultural conflicts, and while the majority of people are materially more comfortable than ever before, there are global epidemics of depression and anxiety. To meet these existential challenges, we have to harness our creativity to a more compassionate and sustainable vision of the world we want to live in and the lives we hope to lead. To do that, we have to create new systems of education for the future and for our children that are based on organic principles of diversity, creativity, and collaboration." -- Publisher's description
