I’m excited to share today’s launch of the Post2Post Virtual Book Tour featuring Exploiting Chaos: 150 Ways To Spark Innovation During Times of Change by Jeremy Gutsche.

As Jeremy oulines on his Exploiting Chaos website…

“In times of chaos, the deck gets reshuffled and the rules of the game are changed. To thrive, companies must learn not to create structure and stability, but rather, to adapt quickly.”

Jeremy will be spending this week, touring from site-to-site, talking with top-notch bloggers about his book, and answering questions about “adapting quickly” and how to leverage – instead of suffer from – change!

I.O.U. A Conclusion

Paul — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 10:09:25 +0000

I was on an international flight a few weeks ago… I hadn’t paid attention to how much time was left for the flight, and we landed before I got to the end of my movie. Now, I need to rent it again to see the last 10 minutes. Small problem to have. But…

In a way, I have left you hanging… There was one more stop on last week’s Post2Post Virtual Book Tour featuring Erika Andersen’s book Being Strategic.

Rajesh Setty at the Life Beyond Code blog posted the final (excellent) interview with Erika as part the tour. Rajesh asks some great questions. Erika provides some great answers!

I hope you enjoy it.

And, oh… here’s the full tour for your blog reading reference.
