Reset: How to change what’s not working

Want to know how to make quick progress - without waiting for a crisis to hit? International bestseller Dan Heath reveals all. Reset will help you get unstuck, shake off old habits, and overcome the inertia of the way things always work. Heath shares a framework, based on research in psychology and hundreds of interviews, to help you vault toward what really matters. Crucially, you can make positive changes without the need for additional time or money (which, for most of us, is not forthcoming). The secret is to find leverage points- places where a little bit of effort can yield a disproportionate return. Our aspirations may differ, but our resolve is the same- to escape the stifling gravity of entrenched systems. To unlock forward momentum - making steady progress toward our highest goals - without the need for more resources. The same people, the same assets, but dramatically better results. Yesterday, we were stuck. Today, we reset.

Review :
One of my favourite behavioural science communicators explores how to fix what’s broken. It’s the long-awaited sequel to Switch. It seems impossible to believe—that using the same staff in the same space with the same goal can lead to a transformed workplace (and by extension, a transformed job). But Heath offers a step-by-step process and compelling examples of resetting that the most frustrated manager or beaten down desk jockey will find useful in improving their department or career... It’s for anyone struggling to change the way they work. Heath’s clear writing will appeal to business readers, but there’s enough research to give the book some academic heft as well. Its focus on making business changes that can have a lasting impact on employees separates the book from other titles about organizational change.
