"Too Fast to Think crackles with good ideas and advice and for
creative thinkers. It's a must read for the media, politicians and
business people alike"
*Baroness Jenkin of Kennington*
"Too Fast to Think perfectly captures the zeitgeist of our
exhausted world. It resonated profoundly with me both as an
entrepreneur and as a parent"
*Alison Cork, entrepreneur, writer, broadcaster*
"Chris Lewis gives us permission to Stop, Think, Dream, Be and
shows us how to replace Hurry Sickness with creative success. His
examples are universal and global, relevant to all people and
professions"
*Dr Pippa Malmgren Former US Presidential Advisor and author of
'Signals: How Everyday Signs Can Help Us Navigate the World's
Turbulent Economy'*
"Time is a luxury that's available to everyone if they have the
discipline to use it properly. In the digital age, our decisions
are pressurised by the speed of events. Making the time to really
think is the key to success. The author is a living testament to
this philosophy"
*Lord Bell, Executive Chairman Bell Pottinger.*
"Chris Lewis's book is an aide memoir to the importance and
enriching power of creativity in business. Lewis has identified a
growing trend that industry is finding it hard to adapt to new
communications challenges and are having difficulties developing
creative ideas, strategies and the necessary infrastructure to meet
those challenges. I recommend his bold ambition to renew our
confidence in creativity"
*Mark Borkowski, Publicist, author and entrepreneur*
"Too Fast to Think is an important reminder that the time of
getting our best ideas in the work environment has passed. The
proximity gained from the internet and social media has come at the
price of continual disruption and the risk that "we shut out what
we don't agree with". The insights Chris Lewis provides from both
the theory and the people trying to take a different path
underscore the importance of not neglecting that which makes us
creative"
*Charlotte Lindsey-Curtet, International Committee of the Red Cross
(ICRC).*
"I loved this book! This fascinating book bubbles with the
effervescence of a creative mind. Chris would want you to explore
his ideas, extract your own, expand on them, share them and explode
his thinking. Hell, blow them up! As George Bernard Shaw's
reflected, "The reasonable man adapts himself to the conditions
that surround him...the unreasonable man adapts surrounding
conditions to himself... All progress depends on the unreasonable
man." Chris Lewis provides a timely and apposite reminder for all
leaders of the need to confront conventional practices. He does so
through an infectious curiosity and shares bold insights, both
pragmatic and paradoxical, to challenge us all to take time to
think"
*Squadron Leader John Peters*
"We neglect holism at our peril. In our complex world only a life
lived in the round can give us the connections and space for
reflection that nurture creativity and compassion. Chris Lewis has
seen the danger of being overwhelmed by the particular and the need
to restore the balanced life necessary for human flourishing and
for meeting the global challenges before us"
*Richard Chartres, The Rt Revd and Rt Hon Richard Chartres, Bishop
of London*
