  Adapting to change is part of life. In our highly competitive world, organizational change in the workplace is more and more essential for business success. Unfortunately for many of us, change is hard and managing change is even harder. Because we really don't know how the brain works, we and our employees don't know what makes us more receptive to change. Employees can't tell their managers what they need to "get on the train", and managers don't know either.In her first book, What Your Customer Wants and Can't Tell You, author and behavioral economics specialist Melina Palmer, applies the science of behavioral economics to unlocking what is behind customer decisions. Behavioral economics combines elements of economics and psychology to understand how and why people behave the way they do in the real world. Now, in her sequel, What Your Employees Need and Can't Tell You, she offers a highly actionable roadmap for business executives and managers faced with the task of instituting successful organizational change.What Your Employees Need and Can't Tell You delivers insights and research from behavioral economics and the greater behavioral sciences, presented in an enjoyable way that you can actually use to get results.

  In "Morality: Restoring the Common Good in Divided Times," Jonathan Sacks explores the current crisis of liberal democracy, the toxicity of public discourse, the breakdown of family life, and the rise in drug abuse and depression, attributing these issues to a loss of a shared moral code and the prioritization of self-interest over the common good. Sacks argues that neither the market nor the state can teach us how to live and that we have outsourced morality to these entities at our peril. He takes readers on a journey from ancient Greece through the Enlightenment to the modern day, making a compelling case that there is no liberty without morality and no freedom without responsibility. Sacks insists that rebuilding a common moral foundation is crucial for a future where we can all find our place and face challenges without fear​​. 
  Sacks discusses the fragmentation of our national political community, emphasizing the dangers of viewing those with differing opinions as less than human or as enemies rather than political opposition. He highlights the role of social media in exacerbating this divide by eroding a shared sense of reality and the absence of reliable gatekeepers of truth online. The book explores a wide range of issues contributing to our moral and societal crises, including loneliness, the collapse of families, and identity politics, advocating for a return to a shared moral consensus based on mutual respect and truth​​. 
  This audio summary captures the essence of Sacks' work, presenting the key takeaways in a concise format that saves you time while providing valuable insights. It's an easy listen for those who have read the original book and want to reinforce its most important lessons, as well as for newcomers seeking practical information to apply in their lives. Sacks' vision of a morally united society serves as a powerful call to action for individuals everywhere to contribute to restoring the common good in these divided times.

  The Feeling Economy - How...

  As machines are trained to "think," many tasks that previously required human intelligence are becoming automated through artificial intelligence. However, it is more difficult to automate emotional intelligence, and this is where the human worker's competitive advantage over machines currently lies. This book explores the impact of AI on everyday life, looking into workers' adaptation to these changes, the ways in which managers can change the nature of jobs in light of AI developments, and the potential for humans and AI to continue working together.The book argues that AI is rapidly assuming a larger share of thinking tasks, leaving human intelligence to focus on feeling. The result is the "Feeling Economy," in which both employees and consumers emphasize feeling to an unprecedented extent, with thinking tasks largely delegated to AI. The book shows both theoretical and empirical evidence that this shift is well underway. Further, it explores the effect of the Feeling Economy on our everyday lives in the areas such as shopping, politics, and education. Specifically, it argues that in this new economy, through empathy and people skills, women may gain an unprecedented degree of power and influence.
