Blink: The Power of Thinking without Thinking
How do we make decisions--good and
bad--and why are some people so much better at it than others? That's the
question Malcolm Gladwell asks and answers in the follow-up to his huge
bestseller, The Tipping Point. Utilizing case studies as diverse as speed
dating, pop music, and the shooting of Amadou Diallo, Gladwell reveals that
what we think of as decisions made in the blink of an eye are much more
complicated than assumed. Drawing on cutting-edge neuroscience and
psychology, he shows how the difference between good decision-making and bad
has nothing to do with how much information we can process quickly, but on
the few particular details on which we focus. |

Good to Great
Jim Collins begins this book with a startling and counterintuitive claim:
"Good is the enemy of great." We've become so conditioned to think of
performance as something that develops along evolutionary lines -- from poor
to good to outstanding -- that it takes a minute to grasp the notion that
competence can actually inhibit achievement. As Collins says, "The vast
majority of companies never become great, precisely because the vast
majority become quite good -- and that is their main problem." |
