Profiles of Genius

Gene N. Landrum

4.1/5 ( ratings)

The story of creative and innovative behavior is about change," says author
Gene N. Landrum. "In this case it is about thirteen iconoclastic individuals who have demonstrated a unique ability to deal with change in the world and redefine it for their own purposes." Landrum calls these individuals the "change masters," entrepreneurial geniuses whose innovations have had a profound influence on modern society:

Steven Jobs , Fred Smith , Tom Monaghan , Nolan Bushnell , William Gates III , Marcel Bich , Solomon Price , Howard Head , William Lear , Soichiro Honda , Akio Morita , Arthur Jones , and Ted Turner .

Each of these business giants was motivated by what Landrum describes as an "innovisionary personality," which drove them to follow a unique inner vision of success and gave them an inviolable belief in themselves.

Profiles of Genius demonstrates, through thirteen dynamic examples, that future entrepreneurial success in a global marketplace will depend on technological innovation, adaptability to change, intelligent risk-taking, and competitive drive.
