In Decisive, the Heaths, based on an exhaustive study of the decision-making literature, introduce a four-step process designed to counteract these biases. Written in an engaging and compulsively listenable style, Decisive takes readers on an unforgettable journey, from a rock star’s ingenious decision-making trick to a CEO’s disastrous acquisition, to a single question that can often resolve thorny personal decisions.

In Made to Stick, Chip and Dan Heath reveal the anatomy of ideas that stick and explain ways to make ideas stickier, such as applying the human scale principle, using the Velcro Theory of Memory, and creating curiosity gaps. Along the way, we discover that sticky messages of all kinds—from the infamous “kidney theft ring” hoax to a coach’s lessons on sportsmanship to a vision for a new product at Sony—draw their power from the same six traits.

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 best seller Made to Stick. Psychologists have discovered that our minds are ruled by two different systems - the rational mind and the emotional mind - that compete for control. The rational mind wants a great beach body; the emotional mind wants that Oreo cookie.

While human lives are endlessly variable, our most memorable positive moments are dominated by four elements: elevation, insight, pride, and connection. If we embrace these elements, we can conjure more moments that matter. What if a teacher could design a lesson that he knew his students would remember 20 years later? What if a manager knew how to create an experience that would delight customers? What if you had a better sense of how to create memories that matter for your children?

We all know that change is hard. It's unsettling, it's time-consuming, and all too often we give up at the first sign of a setback. But why do we insist on seeing the obstacles rather than the goal? This is the question that best-selling authors Chip and Dan Heath tackle in their compelling and insightful new book. They argue that we need only understand how our minds function in order to unlock shortcuts to switches in behaviour.

Una buena idea puede cambiarlo todo. Si quieres tener ideas poderosas y comunicarlas de manera efectiva para conseguir un cambio de conducta o modificar las opiniones de tus empleados, compradores, hijos, lectores o alumnos, Ideas que pegan es tu libro.

Decisiones, decisiones, decisiones. Nos enfrentamos a cientos de ellas todos los días, incluso miles. Pero ¿cómo podemos saber si estamos tomando las correctas? En "Decídete", Chip y Dan Heath abordan uno de los temas cruciales de nuestras vidas laborales y personales: cómo tomar mejores decisiones. Y es que la decisión correcta, en el momento oportuno, puede cambiarlo todo.

"Más vale malo conocido que bueno por conocer". Éste es uno de nuestros dichos más populares. ¿Padecemos una resistencia natural al cambio? ¿Por qué nos oponemos a cualquier modificación de nuestra rutina diaria, de nuestros hábitos y costumbres? Lo cierto es que, a pesar de que a lo largo de nuestra vida aceptamos cambios cruciales, tales como el matrimonio, los hijos, la incorporación a las nuevas tecnologías o los desafíos de nuevos empleos, algunos hábitos nos resultan innegociables y, por más que queramos, no conseguimos erradicarlos.

¿Cómo es posible que dos desconocidos entren en una sala y 45 minutos después ya sean amigos íntimos? ¿Por qué tenemos algunos recuerdos imborrables de nuestra infancia o adolescencia? ¿A qué se debe que recordemos perfectamente eventos ocurridos hace años? Chip y Dan Heath, autores superventas de The New York Times y The Wall Street Journal, nos enseñan en este libro que ciertas experiencias cambian nuestra vida y que no tienen por qué ser siempre producto del azar: podemos crearlas, si sabemos cómo.

A clear, practical, first-of-its-kind guide to communicating and understanding numbers and data - from best-selling business author Chip Heath.

Until very recently, most languages had no words for numbers greater than five - anything from six to infinity was known as 'lots'. While the numbers in our world have become increasingly complex, our brains are stuck in the past. Yet the ability to communicate and understand numbers has never mattered more. So how can we more effectively translate numbers and stats so that the data comes alive? In Making Numbers Count, Chip Heath and Karla Starr argue that understanding numbers is essential - but humans aren't built to understand them.

Au travail comme à la maison, quand on veut changer quelque chose (améliorer son chiffre d'affaires, se mettre au vélo, pousser son conjoint à arrêter de fumer...), une montagne d'obstacles surgit forcément : trop de contraintes, pas le courage, trop compliqué... Malgré nos bonnes volontés, nous résistons au changement ! Pourtant, c'est facile d'y arriver ! Au programme, dans ce livre : Un concept simple pour expliquer les mécanismes du comportement.

Pourquoi certains moments, même brefs, nous marquent à vie ? Pourquoi nos souvenirs les plus précieux se concentrent-ils sur une courte période de notre jeunesse ? Pourquoi avons-nous tendance à nous souvenir du meilleur, du pire ou du dernier instant d'une expérience vécue ? Dans ce nouvel ouvrage, Chip et Dan Heath décryptent les ressorts de ces instants puissants capables de changer une vie et vous apprennent à créer des expériences mémorables pour vos interlocuteurs, vos clients, vos enfants.

The New York Times best-selling authors of Switch and Made to Stick explore why certain brief experiences can jolt, elevate and change us - and how we can learn to create such extraordinary moments in our life and work. What if a teacher could design a lesson that he knew his students would remember 20 years later? What if a doctor or nurse knew how to orchestrate moments that would bring more comfort to patients?

In Decisive, Chip and Dan Heath draw on decades of psychological research to explain why we so often get it very badly wrong - why our supposedly rational brains are frequently tripped up by powerful biases and wishful thinking. At the same time they demonstrate how relatively easy it is to avoid the pitfalls and find the best answers, offering four simple principles that we can all learn and follow. In the process, they show why it is that experts frequently make mistakes.
