Mad Genius is a unique book for entrepreneurs--and for employees who want to think like entrepreneurs. It will help you unleash the innate creative genius inside you.
Every industry has its sacred cows and accepted practices. These are often based upon foundational premises that are no longer valid--if they ever were.
There's a reason Facebook was birthed in a dorm room, Amazon.com came from people not in the bookstore business, and UBER was created by people who weren't from the taxi industry. Innovation, discovery, and creating disruption require blowing up conventional thinking and unleashing your entrepreneurial brilliance.
Mad Genius is a fire hose of creative stimulation that will spark breakthrough ideas and show you how to nurture them.
Get ready to think different.
Randy Gage is a thought-provoking critical thinker who will make you approach your business--and your life--in a whole new way. Randy is the author of ten books translated into twenty-five languages, including the New York Times bestseller Risky is the New Safe. More important, he is an entrepreneur and angel investor whose passion is starting and growing businesses.
Randy has spoken to more than two million people across more than fifty countries and is a member of the Speakers Hall of Fame. When he is not prowling the podium or locked in his lonely writer's garret, you'll probably find him playing third base on a softball field somewhere.

Reviews
Mad Love for Mad Genius“After reading Mad Genius, I filled half a journal with insights and ideas, but here are a couple of areas of critical thinking which I believe every entrepreneur would be wise to attend to -- instead of risking seeing the next 10 years become more than “cataclysmic” -- in fact downright disasterous.”
