About the author
Nilofer Merchant
11 books112 followersNilofer Merchant is a master at turning seemingly “wild” ideas into new realities and showing the rest of us how we can too.
A recovering business executive from Apple and other tech companies, she has personally launched more than 100 products, netting $18B in sales. (That's billions, not millions.)
The Power of Onlyness is her third book. Her prior ideas have earned her quite a few recognitions. CNBC has called Nilofer a visionary. Her 2nd book, 11 Rules for Creating Value in the #SocialEra, was released in the Fall of 2012, by Harvard Business Press. It was chosen by Fast Company as one of the Best Business Books of 2012. In 2013, she was awarded the prestigious "Future Thinker" award, from Thinkers50 which ranks the the world's leading business thinkers. This particular award is chosen to recognize someone who will most likely shape the future of management in both theory and practice.
You might also know of Nilofer from her TEDtalk, which changed the dialogue of activity with the meme, "Sitting Is The Smoking Of Our Generation" where she talks of the profound and yet easy value in adopting walkntalk meetings. It's ranked in the top 10% of all TEDtalks.
