“Terry, don’t you see? A fish stinks from its head down”. It was three months into my maiden voyage as a cable TV executive, at age 27. I was in the middle of going over a laundry list of problems with my boss that had been vexing me for weeks.

This past weekend was one of the best weekends of my life. Did I go anywhere? Hang out on a beach? Unplug? Do nothing? Party with friends? Get ten massages?

When the weekend completed I was clear and awake to questions I'd been percolating on for months and not been able to access answers to.

Innovation has scarcely been as popular and trendy as it is today, but as Wired’s David Rowan pithily points out in his latest book, a lot of what passes for innovation is b t smothered in multiple layers of jargon and obfuscation that creates the impression that much is being done, but it’s largely a superficial veneer.
