by Dan Heath
Heath argues we spend too much time reacting to problems when we should prevent them upstream. The shift requires overcoming tunneling, ownership gaps, and the invisibility of non-events.
The books Dan Heath references, cites, and recommends most frequently.
by Daniel Kahneman
Kahneman reveals that our minds run on two systems: fast intuition and slow deliberation. Most errors in judgement come from trusting System 1 when the situation demands System 2's careful analysis.
by Donella Meadows
Meadows explains how systems, from economies to ecosystems, behave through feedback loops, stocks, and flows. Most interventions fail because we address symptoms rather than the underlying structure driving the problem.
by Chip Heath
Heath and Heath identify six principles that make ideas stick: simplicity, unexpectedness, concreteness, credibility, emotions, and stories. Sticky messages succeed because of structure, not luck.
