Summary:
The book argues that the future of global business will belong to right-brain thinkers due to the rising importance of artistic and empathic abilities. It outlines six essential right-brain aptitudes and provides tools and tips to develop these skills to succeed in a world where analytical and logical skills are increasingly outsourced or automated.
Key points:
1. Conceptual Age: Pink suggests a new era, the Conceptual Age, where right-brain qualities like creativity and empathy are more valuable than analytical skills. This shift is due to abundance, Asia's outsourcing, and automation.
