Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett

Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER * At last, a book that shows you how to build--design--a life you can thrive in, at any age or stage * "Life has questions. They have answers." --The New York Times

Designers create worlds and solve problems using design thinking. Look around your office or home--at the tablet or smartphone you may be holding or the chair you are sitting in. Everything in our lives was designed by someone. And every design starts with a problem that a designer or team of designers seeks to solve.

In this book, Bill Burnett and Dave Evans show us how design thinking can help us create a life that is both meaningful and fulfilling, regardless of who or where we are, what we do or have done for a living, or how young or old we are. The same design thinking responsible for amazing technology, products, and spaces can be used to design and build your career and your life, a life of fulfillment and joy, constantly creative and productive, one that always holds the possibility of surprise.

Dave Evans is the vice president of social strategy at Social Dynamx, a software company that provides a scalable social media platform for customer service. Dave has worked on social media campaigns for companies such as Intel, Dell, Pepsi, and the Dallas/Fort Worth and Bangalore International Airports, among others. He sits on the advisory boards of Friend2Friend and Netbase, two social Internet businesses. He's also a ClickZ columnist and a frequent keynote speaker, and he's served on the advisory boards for ad: tech and the Word of Mouth Marketing Association's Measurement and Metrics Council. www.sybex.com/go/socialmediahour www.sybex.com/go/socialmediahour
