    About this ebook

    Generating and executing great ideas is the key to staying ahead in a rapidly changing world. It seems so basic. Why is it so hard to actually get right? The real problem is that we're teaching people to ask the wrong questions -or none at all. There has to be a better way.

    In Beyond the Obvious, McKinney helps the reader to dig deeper and get back to asking the right questions-the ones all organizations must ask to survive. Full of real-world examples, this book will change the way you operate, innovate, and create, and it all begins with battle-tested questions Phil has gathered on note cards throughout his career and shared for the first time.
    • What are the rules and assumptions my industry operates under?
      What if the opposite were true?
    • What will be the buying criteria used by my customer in five years?
    • What are my unshakable beliefs about what my customers want?
    • Who uses my product in ways I never anticipated?
    These questions will re-frame the way you see your products, your customers, and the way the two interact. Whether you're a company of thousands or a lean start-up, Beyond the Obviouswill give you the skills and easy-to-follow plan you need to make both the revolutionary changes and nuanced tweaks required for success.
