Drawing on extensive case studies and research, Fields shares a set of detailed personal practices and environmental changes that can not only humanize the creative process, but also allow individuals and teams to stay more open to opportunity and play a bigger creative game.

Jonathan Fields is a lawyer-turned-serial entrepreneur, AdAge Power 150 blogger, marketing consultant, speaker, and author. His last book, Career Renegade, was named a Top 10 Small Biz Book by Small Business Trends. A contributor to PsychologyToday.com and HuffingtonPost.com, he writes about entrepreneurship, innovation, lifestyles, and marketing at JonathanFields.com and TribalAuthor.com.
