Here's what leading strategic thinkers like Bill Gates of Microsoft, Alan Matcham of Oracle, and Dr. Mike Stanley of Boeing say about Mind Mapping:

"Most of us now live in an 'information democracy'.... But while we've gone a long way toward optimizing how we use information, we haven't yet done the same for knowledge.... But as software gets smarter about how people think and work, it's starting to help them synthesize and manage knowledge, too... new generation of "mind-mapping" software can also be used as a digital "blank slate" to help connect and synthesize ideas and data-and ultimately create new knowledge.""
- Bill Gates, Founder of Microsoft

"We are a complicated business so Mind Maps help - I could not manage the complexity of my work without Mind Maps. I have often used Mind Maps to deal with the complexities of how we should move forward. Frankly, they are invaluable."
- Alan Matcham, Director of Oracle

"The use of Mind Mapping is an integral part of my quality improvement project here at Boeing. This has provided savings of over $10M this year for my organisation (10 times our goal)"
- Mike Stanley, BOEING CORPORATION - USA

The article points out that he uses Mind Mapping to help him keep control of his thoughts and that he used Mind Mapping software when working on his recent book.
