Top 50 Thinkers

Monday, November 12, 2007

There can be as much value in the blink of an eye as in months of rational analysis.
- Malcolm Gladwell, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking

...I only know of eleven of them. Two are great bloggers - Seth Godin and Scott Adams.

Sunstop Media in association with Skillsoft produced this list of Top 50 Thinkers. The list basically answers the question, "Who is the most influential living management thinker?" The thinkers are chosen by business people, consultants, academics and MBA students throughout the world based on ten criteria. These are originality and practicality of ideas, presentation style, written communication, loyalty of followers, business sense, international outlook, rigors of research, impact of ideas and guru factor.

You can only say that you live once you think. It is the hardest thing to do but the most important act to sustain. I can enumerate some of the thinkers that this world has witnesses. Inventors, scientists, billionaires, and even politicians will complete the list. But there are people who have never accomplished something grand yet I consider them as the greatest thinkers. These people don't need science and logic to do such. It only takes common sense to be a great thinker

I think there are many thinkers in this world and you cannot say that these are the 50 best or top thinkers of the world as newer and more wiser people born every day and even you cannot judge them by some specific qualities rather you have take a closer look their complete know how about things that are most important for all of us.
