Hired by the world’s leading brands to find out what makes their customers tick, Martin Lindstrom spends three hundred nights a year overseas, closely observing people in their homes. His goal: to uncover their hidden desires and turn them into breakthrough products for the world’s leading brands. In a world besotted by the power of Big Data, he works like a modern-day Sherlock Holmes, accumulating small clues to help solve a stunningly diverse array of challenges. Lindstrom connects the dots in this globe-trotting narrative that will fascinate not only marketers and brand managers, but anyone interested in the infinite variations of human behavior. Small Data combines armchair travel with forensic psychology into an interlocking series of international clue-gathering detective stories. It presents a rare behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to create global brands, and along the way, reveals surprising and counterintuitive truths about what connects us all as humans.

Human lives are diverse, but our most memorable positive moments share four key elements: elevation, insight, pride, and connection. By embracing these, we can create more significant experiences. Imagine a teacher crafting a lesson that students will remember for decades or a manager designing an unforgettable customer experience. This exploration reveals why we remember the best or worst moments and the last moments of experiences while forgetting the rest. It highlights our comfort in certainty versus the aliveness found in uncertainty and explains why cherished memories often cluster in youth. Readers learn how brief encounters can transform lives, such as an experiment where two strangers become best friends in just 45 minutes. It also shares the story of the youngest female billionaire, who attributes her resilience to a simple question posed at the family dinner table. Many defining moments arise from luck, but why leave our most meaningful experiences to chance? This exploration teaches us how to intentionally create richer, memorable moments in our lives.

The authors present a four-step process aimed at mitigating the biases that infiltrate our decision-making. Psychological research shows that our choices are often hindered by various biases and irrationalities: we tend to be overconfident, seek confirming information while ignoring contradictory data, and let short-term emotions cloud our judgment. Simply recognizing these flaws is insufficient, much like knowing one is nearsighted doesn't improve vision. The key question addressed is: How can we enhance our decision-making? Drawing from extensive research in the field, the authors outline a four-step method to combat these biases. The narrative includes compelling examples, from a rock star's clever decision-making technique to a CEO's unfortunate acquisition, and highlights a pivotal question that can clarify complex personal dilemmas. Readers will discover answers to essential questions, such as how to break the cycle of indecision, make group decisions free from toxic politics, and avoid missing valuable opportunities for change. This work provides actionable strategies and tools to help us make more informed choices, emphasizing that the right decision at the right time can significantly impact our lives.

'A fantastic book.' WIRED 'Witty and instructive.' WALL STREET JOURNAL 'Invaluable for anyone wanting to make long-lasting change a reality.' BBC FOCUS 'A must-read.' FORBES ______________________________________________ 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 bestselling authors Chip and Dan Heath tackle in their compelling and insightful book. They argue that we need to understand how our minds function in order to unlock shortcuts to switch up our behaviours. Illustrating their ideas with scientific studies and remarkable real-life turnarounds - from the secrets of successful marriage counselling to the pile of gloves that transformed one company's finances - the brothers Heath prove that deceptively simple methods can yield truly extraordinary results. 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.

Urban legends, conspiracy theories, and bogus public-health scares circulate effortlessly. Meanwhile, people with important ideas--business people, teachers, politicians, journalists, and others--struggle to make their ideas "stick." Why do some ideas thrive while others die? And how do we improve the chances of worthy ideas? Educators and idea collectors 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." In this fast-paced tour of success stories (and failures), 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. This book that will transform the way you communicate ideas.--From publisher description.
