Bestselling author Shawn Achor shows how to unlock hidden sources of potential in ourselves and others.
Big Potential offers a new path to thriving in the modern world..
The dramatic shifts in how we approach work today demand an equally dramatic shift in our approach to success.
Here, Achor offers five strategies - the SEEDS of Big Potential--for lifting the ceiling on what we can achieve while returning Happiness and meaning to our lives.
BIG Potential is what we can achieve together.
Small Potential is the limited Success we can attain alone.
Rather than fighting over scraps of the pie, we can expand the pie instead.
So when we help others become better, we reach new levels of potential, as well.
Just as Happiness is contagious, every dimension of human potential - performance, intelligence, creativity, leadership ability and health - is influenced by those around us.
Rather, they depend almost entirely on how well we connect with, relate to, and learn from each other.
Drawing on his work in 50 countries, he shows that Success and Happiness are not competitive sports.
In his highly anticipated follow-up to The Happiness Advantage , Achor reveals a better approach.
By pursuing Success in isolation - pushing others away as we push ourselves too hard - we are not just limiting our potential, we are becoming more stressed and disconnected than ever.
In a world that thrives on competition and individual achievement, we are measuring and pursuing potential all wrong.
