As táticas de grandes empresas: Descubra como gigantes como a Starbucks, a Target e a Alcoa usam o conhecimento dos hábitos para aumentar a produtividade, fidelizar clientes e impulsionar o crescimento. Como os movimentos sociais nascem: Entenda a anatomia dos hábitos sociais e como eles podem ser remodelados para criar mudanças profundas. Com casos reais que vão desde a história de um alcoólatra em recuperação até a transformação de uma corporação bilionária e a explosão do Movimento dos Direitos Civis nos EUA, Duhigg não apenas explica a teoria, mas a ilustra com exemplos inesquecíveis. "O Poder do Hábito" oferece uma tese poderosa: compreender a mecânica dos seus hábitos é a chave para exercer o controle sobre sua vida, sua carreira e sua sociedade.

Prepare-se para nunca mais enxergar sua rotina, suas metas e suas ações da mesma maneira.

Ny bok av författaren bakom The Power of Habit »Uppslukande läsning, både om hur du förstår andra och hur du själv gör dig förstådd.« Adam Grant I Superkommunikatörer kombinerar Charles Duhigg djupgående research med sin hyllade berättartalang för att visa hur vi alla kan lära oss känna igen - och dra nytta av - de dolda lager som lurar under varje samtal. Kommunikation är en superkraft, och de bästa kommunikatörerna förstår att vi så fort vi har ett samtal i själva verket deltar i en av tre konversationer: en praktisk (Vad handlar det här egentligen om?), en känslomässig (Hur känner vi?) och en social (Vilka är vi?). Om vi inte vet vilket slags samtal vi har är det osannolikt att vi lyckas skapa kontaktytor. I grund och botten är budskapet enkelt: Med de rätta verktygen kan vi nå fram till och kommunicera med vem som helst. I översättning av Manne Svensson. CHARLES DUHIGG är en amerikansk Pulitzer-prisvinnande journalist och författaren till The Power of Habit [2012], som låg på New York Times bestsellerlista i tre år och har sålt i över 5 miljoner exemplar världen över. Framgången fortsatte med den hyllade uppföljaren Smarter Faster Better [2016]. Superkommunikatörer [Supercommunicators, 2024] är Charles Duhiggs senaste bok, som även den snabbt blivit en internationell bestseller. »Charles Duhigg gör det igen.« Arthur C. Brooks »Duhigg använder sig av engagerande historieberättande för att lyfta fram fängslande forskning och grundläggande principer som vi alla kan lära oss av och använda i våra dagliga liv.« David Allen, författare till Getting Things Done

ENGISH DESCRIPTION From the bestselling author of The Power of Habit, a fascinating exploration of what makes conversations work--and how we can all learn to be supercommunicators at work and in life "A winning combination of stories, studies, and guidance that might well transform the worst communicators you know into some of the best."--Adam Grant, author of Think Again and Hidden Potential Come inside a jury room as one juror leads a starkly divided room to consensus. Join a young CIA officer as he recruits a reluctant foreign agent. And sit with an accomplished surgeon as he tries, and fails, to convince yet another cancer patient to opt for the less risky course of treatment. In Supercommunicators, Charles Duhigg blends deep research and his trademark storytelling skills to show how we can all learn to identify and leverage the hidden layers that lurk beneath every conversation. Communication is a superpower, and the best communicators understand that whenever we speak we''re actually participating in one of three conversations: practical (What''s this really about?), emotional (How do we feel?), and social (Who are we?). If you don''t know what kind of conversation you''re having, you''re unlikely to connect. Supercommunicators know the importance of recognizing--and then matching--each kind of conversation, and how to hear the complex emotions, subtle negotiations, and deeply held beliefs that color so much of what we say and how we listen. Our experiences, our values, our emotional lives--and how we see ourselves, and others--shape every discussion, from who will pick up the kids to how we want to be treated at work. In this book, you will learn why some people are able to make themselves heard, and to hear others, so clearly. With his storytelling that takes us from the writers'' room of The Big Bang Theory to the couches of leading marriage counselors, Duhigg shows readers how to recognize these three conversations--and teaches us the tips and skills we need to navigate them more successfully. In the end, he delivers a simple but powerful lesson: With the right tools, we can connect with anyone.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • This instant classic explores how we can change our lives by changing our habits.

Een gewoonte voltrekt zich in onze hersenen in niet meer dan drie stappen: de aansporing (ik heb een vieze smaak in mijn mond) gevolgd door de routinehandeling (ik neem een kauwgommetje) resulterend in de beloning (dat is lekker fris!). Je bewust worden van dit proces is een sleutel tot succes op vele gebieden: het kan de productiviteit op je werk verhogen en je creativiteit vergroten. ''Een lekker boek. Mooie verhalen, knap gevonden, goed uitgezocht en spannend opgeschreven, met cliffhangers tussen de secties.'' – NRC Handelsblad ''Alcoholverslaafden, reclamemakers, militairen, hersenpatiënten, laboratoriummuizen en voetbalcoaches. Het klinkt als een rare verzameling hoofdpersonen voor een boek, maar toch pakt die afwisseling in Macht der gewoonte fantastisch uit. Duhiggs boek over gedragsverandering staat vol anekdotes over mensen die erin slaagden slechte gewoonten te veranderen.'' – de Volkskrant

Hogyan tudjuk mentális modellek segítségével fenntartani a koncentrációnkat? Miként taníthatjuk meg a céltalan tinédzsereket, hogy önmagukat motiválják? Miért fontosabb az, hogyan működik egy csoport, mint az, hogy kik a tagjai? Sokak szerint a hatékonyság azt jelenti, hogy többet vagy keményebben kell dolgoznunk. A Pulitzer-díjas újságíró, Charles Duhigg szerint erről szó sincs: az igazán hatékony csupán az különbözteti meg elfoglalt társaiktól, hogy megválasztják, mely ambícióik megvalósításán fáradoznak, és mely céljaikat hagyják figyelmen kívül, valamint hogy milyen szervezeti kultúrát alakítanak ki vezetőként a csapatukban. Az Okosabban, gyorsabban, jobban nyolc kulcsfontosságú koncepciója – a motivációtól a célmeghatározáson és a fókuszon át a döntéshozatalig – magyarázatot ad arra, hogy miért érnek el rendkívüli sikereket bizonyos emberek és vállalatok még a gyors változások közepette is. A szerző az idegtudomány, a pszichológia és a viselkedési közgazdaságtan legfrissebb kutatásaira támaszkodva bevezet a termelékenység tudományába, és bemutatja, hogy a mai világban a „hogyan gondolkodunk” fontosabb annál, mint hogy „mit gondolunk”.

Essentieel is een verandering in hóé we denken, doelen formuleren, teams samenstellen en beslissingen nemen.Dat is de prikkelende stelling van Charles Duhigg, auteur van de bestseller De macht der gewoonte. In Slimmer sneller beter volgen we in acht casestudies het pad van enkele beroemde instellingen, die elk een belangrijke verandering in hun werkproces implementeren. Zo leren we hoe Disney het team van Frozen wist te prikkelen om sneller creativiteit tot stand te brengen door de juiste spanning te creëren, hoe het U.S. Marine Corps haar basistraining omgooit met beter gemotiveerde rekruten als gevolg, en hoe zowel Toyota als de FBI de betrokkenheid en innovatiekracht van hun werknemers vergroten door de belangrijke beslissingen aan hen over te laten. In Slimmer sneller beter worden de key learnings van grote organisaties gepresenteerd in verrassende verhalen. De nieuwsgierigheid van de auteur en het rijke onderzoek waar hij uit put leveren een boek vol verrassende inzichten op. Hárder werken maakt organisaties en werknemers niet per se sneller en beter. Het geheim van productiviteit zit hem in slímmer werken. ''In Slimmer sneller beter legt Duhigg uit hoe we de uitkomsten van wetenschappelijk onderzoek kunnen toepassen op ons dagelijks leven. Een meesterlijke must-read voor iedereen die meer voor elkaar wil krijgen.'' – David Allen, auteur van Getting Things Done

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The author of The Power of Habit and Supercommunicators and “master of the life hack” (GQ) explores the fascinating science of productivity and offers real-world takeaways to apply your life, whether you’re chasing peak productivity or simply trying to get back on track. “Duhigg melds cutting-edge science, deep reporting, and wide-ranging stories to give us a fuller, more human way of thinking about how productivity actually happens.”—Susan Cain, author of Quiet In The Power of Habit, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Charles Duhigg explained why we do what we do. In Smarter Faster Better, he applies the same relentless curiosity and rich storytelling to how we can improve at the things we do. At the core of Smarter Faster Better are eight key concepts—from motivation and goal setting to focus and decision making—that explain why some people and companies get so much done. Drawing on the latest findings in neuroscience, psychology, and behavioral economics—as well as the experiences of CEOs, educational reformers, four-star generals, FBI agents, airplane pilots, and Broadway songwriters—this book reveals that the most productive people, companies, and organizations don’t merely act differently. They view the world, and their choices, in profoundly different ways. Smarter Faster Better is a story-filled exploration of the science of productivity, one that can help us learn to succeed with less stress and struggle—and become smarter, faster, and better at everything we do.

Lisa suffered from bulimia, alcoholism, smoking and over-indebtedness. One day, everything changed: by modifying a piece of the puzzle of her existence, she got out of the vicious circle of her toxic habits. How did Starbucks become a juggernaut generating more than $ 10 million in revenue per year? By changing a management habit. Habit is the autopilot of our brain. Drawing on the latest research in psychology and neuroscience, Charles Duhigg reveals how it works and reveals this elementary principle: if our life is made up of key habits that govern our behavior without our knowledge, it suffices to modify one element to create a virtuous circle. By changing keys, you will open unsuspected doors!

Duhigg takes us to the thrilling edge of scientific discoveries that explain why habits exist and how they can be changed.
