Ilja Grzeskowitz

We live in tough times, and it seems many are unhappy with their circumstances in society, at work, or at home.

Grzeskowitz reveals the biggest motivational myths, announces the comeback of values, and shows you the most important characteristic that will help you to actively implement the necessary changes in business and in life. Think it. Do it. Change it. helps you live a life characterized by possibilities rather than limitations.

Imagine Bill Gates and Giorgio Armani started a business, then hired PT Barnum to promote it, and Larry David to tell the story. The result is this book.

Today, the most successful businesses and entrepreneurs thrive through connectivity, socialization, and sharing. It is an age of WE-Commerce, an economy centered on the power of “we” instead of “me,” focused on the needs of the many over the few. Booming companies such as Uber and Airbnb leverage technology to create platforms that rely largely on social media and community feedback to facilitate people’s ability to collaborate with one another. Instead of traditional business strategies, companies must now inspire belief and trust in their communities; collaborate with their customers; create business models that are socially and environmentally responsible; find opportunities for creative collaboration with large, global markets; and become a new generation of innovators—“artists of business.”
