Switch was more applicable to my everyday work because I had specific habits of teaching that needed to change. The tips given by Chip and Dan Heath were actionable, measurable, and accomplishable. Much more applicable than bigger ideas about motivation in other books on the same topic. ( ) How to engineer change—a refreshing shift in my perspective after writing a book about how to navigate change. A clear explanation of the aspects involved in change—reason, emotion, the path, with illustrations of successful applications of wisdom that takes these aspects into account. Illuminating and educational read that kept me engaged throughout. As in almost every case, the contemporary American approach to well-known topics relate to (not only) organisational behaviour is the one of focusing on a few, powerful metaphors and using them to refresh old concepts. This book is no exception: here the topic is change management, the concepts are the role of clear objectives, motivation and environment and the metaphors are "the rider", "the elephant", "the path". Switch has just the right balance of background and tips for a practical book. These two factors combine to generate a framework for causing change that is easy to remember, yet thorough enough to feel like it will be effective. This book is definitely going on my shortlist of leadership and communication books to read again. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML:Why is it so hard to make lasting changes in our companies, in our communities, and in our own lives? The primary obstacle is a conflict that's built into our brains, say Chip and Dan Heath, authors of the critically acclaimed bestseller Made to Stick. Psychologists have discovered that our minds are ruled by two different systems - the rational mind and the emotional mindâ??that compete for control. The rational mind wants a great beach body; the emotional mind wants that Oreo cookie. The rational mind wants to change something at work; the emotional mind loves the comfort of the existing routine. This tension can doom a change effort - but if it is overcome, change can come quickly. In Switch, the Heaths show how everyday people - employees and managers, parents and nurses - have united both minds and, as a result, achieved dramatic results: â?¢ The lowly medical interns who managed to defeat an entrenched, decades-old medical practice that was endangering patients â?¢ The home-organizing guru who developed a simple technique for overcoming the dread of housekeeping â?¢ The manager who transformed a lackadaisical customer-support team into service zealots by removing a standard tool of customer service In a compelling, story-driven narrative, the Heaths bring together decades of counterintuitive research in psychology, sociology, and other fields to shed new light on how we can effect transformative change. Switch shows that successful changes follow a pattern, a pattern you can use to make the changes that matter to you, whether your interest is in changing the world or changing you Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
