As Seen On
there's nothing worse
than a problem that remains unsolved
We saw a way to solve them. Others just couldn’t see it yet.
While we waited for the world to catch up, we started to reimagine intelligence. Forming a global mind from the most unusual suspects, who were in it for the ideas, not the glory. And finding a way that technology could enhance human minds, not replace them.
Then Covid changed everything. Suddenly we were relevant. Now more than ever, the world needs answers. It’s lucky then we’ve quietly been turning the world into the biggest innovation lab in history.
Problems solved.

Why I Wrote This Book
In Mindhive, I tell the story of a new revolution in problem-solving.
Throughout history, problem-solving has focused on deep expertise, matched with disciplines, to fix problems.
However, today's problems are tough to solve.
The traditional methods that have served us well for decades no longer seem to work. Over the past few years, we've increasingly realised that the smartest person in the room may well be the room itself.
Leadership is the power of one harnessing the power of many.
Problems worth solving require deep collaboration and nuanced discussion to generate multiple answers – traditional linear tools do not deliver non-linear solutions.
How do we empower those charged to solve these problems for clients, the community and themselves with the right tools in a competitive digital economy driven by speed and scale?
I explore how we can rethink expertise, idea generation and problem-solving by redefining expertise and matching 'problem owners' with 'problem solvers'. In the same way that apps like Tinder and eHarmony help find a romantic match, new platforms are being created to 'mindhive' our most vexing challenges, from infrastructure funding to regulating the sharing economy.
Drawing on client case studies with government and industry leaders, Mindhive looks at how a simple idea has grown from a few experts co-creating a problem-solving process to almost 12,000 hivers reshaping business and government for the twenty-first century.
Accelerate progress.
