Hugh MacLeod is cofounder and creative director of Gapingvoid, a consultancy that helps companies like Microsoft, Zappos, Rackspace, Goldman Sachs, and Roche Pharmaceuticals challenge and change culture with a methodology that uses cynically hopeful business art to articulate Lean Six Sigma methodologies in visceral, emotional language.

- Why it’s good to “get bored of your best ideas quickly.”
- Why email is the hottest
