Switch : how to change things when change is hard / Chip Heath and Dan Heath.

Heath, Chip, (author.). Heath, Dan, 1973- (author.).

Summary:

"In a compelling, story-driven narrative, the Heaths bring together decades of counterintuitive research in psychology, sociology, and other fields to shed new light on how we can effect transformative change.
