Mikael Krogerus Knihy

Které auto si mám koupit? Jak můžu motivovat sebe nebo svůj tým? Jak to, že lidé touží po tom, co nepotřebují? Kdy je čas na změnu? Proč je dobré mít omezený výběr? Žiju v přítomnosti? Proč lidé kouří, i když je to nezdravé? Na tyto i řadu jiných otázek pomohla tato kniha odpovědět již milionu lidí v 27 různých zemích. Skládá se z padesáti grafických modelů a jejich stručného popisu. Sami autoři říkají, že modely jsou zjednodušením důležitých součástí skutečnosti. S pomocí obrázků znázorňují to, co lze slovy vyjádřit jen stěží. Nehledejte v nich však odpovědi. Ty naleznete teprve potom, co si model sami vyzkoušíte. Autoři přitom používají proslulé i zcela neznámé modely rozhodování. Kniha tak velmi přístupnou formou poskytuje podněty pro rozmanité aspekty rozhodování i úspěšného života obecně. A ještě malý návod. Pokud rádi užíváte metodu „pokus–omyl“, začněte nejlépe částí „Jak se zlepšit“, případně „Jak zlepšit druhé“. Jste-li onen typ, který si nejprve prostuduje určitou teorii a pak podle ní jedná, doporučujeme začít kapitolou „Jak se lépe pochopit“ nebo „Jak lépe pochopit druhé“.
