Drawing on the latest findings in neuroscience, psychology, and behavioral economicsas well as the experiences of CEOs, educational reformers, four-star generals, FBI agents, airplane pilots, and Broadway songwritersthis book reveals that the most productive people, companies, and organizations dont merely act differently. They view the world, and their choices, in profoundly different ways.
