CIE and PDI have chosen two books for this year’s NMC Reads: The Power of Moments by Chip Heath and Dan Heath and The Business Model Innovation Factory by Saul Kaplan.

The Power of Moments argues that our most memorable positive moments are dominated by four characteristics–elevation, insight, pride, and connection–and they demonstrate how to create those moments for students, employees and customers.

The Business Model Innovation Factory presents a model for how to deal with fast-paced change. It presents 15 practical tips to guide good innovation–guidelines that our own Experiential Learning team is using as they think through how to bring more experiential learning opportunities to our students.
